Basketball

In 1908, the first intramural basketball games were held at Middlebury.  Both men and women played basketball in the 1910s. An intercollegiate men’s basketball team was not established until the 1917-18 season, when, according to Damon Hatheway, “Simeon E. Murch leads Middlebury to perfect 7-0 record and the first of seven Vermont State Championships in the program’s inaugural season” (Hatheway timeline).
