The 1897–98 United States collegiate men's ice hockey season was the 3rd season of collegiate ice hockey.
With the addition of Brown University and Harvard University to the ice hockey ranks, the first ice hockey conference was formed and named the first unofficial collegiate champion.
After the school year ended, Johns Hopkins University became the first college to dissolve its ice hockey program, citing travel costs, disagreements between the rink managers, and lack of support from the student body.[1] Johns Hopkins would not field another ice hockey team for 90 years.
