JP High School Hockey Team - 1924




There seems to have been nothing special about the 1924 Jamaica Plain High School hockey team, but this very nice picture gets them remembered for posterity. The coach was John Kay. Sadly, we only get their first initials.

Jamaica Plain High Rink Team In Long Uphill Fight


[excerpt]

Jamaica Plain High School hockey team has done fairly well in its games in the Boston District High School League series this Winter and hopes to improve its record in the remaining games.

Only one outside game was played last week, with Belmont High School, which succeeded in taking the measure of the boys from the West Roxbury District.

Raymond is captain of the Jamaica Plain team and has distinguished himself as a player. Other members of hte team who have covered themselves with glory are A. Raymond, J. Maguire, E. Kelleher, E. Cox, W. Norton, C. Cronin, C. Holmquist, T. Mills, B. Hicks, E. Costello, F. Randall and G. Porter.
