Stackhouse Leads High School Team
Born in Wolfville, coach Ted Stackhouse had played hockey at Acadia Collegiate Academy as a school boy, then for two years at Acadia University. In 1917, he was a member of the Stanley Cup champions Toronto “Pats.” During the early 1920s he coached hockey for both the high school and the university. His success as a coach is evident from the comment of the June 1924 Athenaeum “Coach Stackhouse turned out a championship team in hockey from a squad of light and inexperienced players.” Players on the high school team included future Acadia University hockey stars Jack Williams and Clair McKenna.
