Harry Cleverly's 12-year varsity coaching record is an impressive
one. Previous to the 1958-59 season, his team had won 161
games, lost 89, and tied seven. He had only two losing teams,
three teams in the National Championships, and in 1958 swept
both the Beanpot and Boston Arena Christmas Tournaments.
In 1958 he was named college hockey's "Coach of the
Year" and was chosen president of the American College
Hockey Coaches Association.
His athletic endeavors while a student at Boston University
earned him recognition as one of the most versatile of all
former Scarlet stars. He was a standout in football, hockey,
and baseball.
Cleverly left with the class of '37 and after military service
and assistant coaching positions at Boston University, took
charge of the hockey and baseball varsities in 1945.
