Biography

Alfred Winsor was born in Brookline‚ Massachusetts on January 8, 1880 to Alfred Winsor, Sr. and Linda Kennard.[1] Winsor attended Harvard University from where he graduated in 1902. Prior to that he had attended Noble and Greenough's School in Boston.

Winsor played ice hockey at Harvard, at the forward position, between 1900 and 1902 and was captain of the 1902 team that played in the intercollegiate ice hockey league series against teams from Yale‚ Princeton, Brown and Columbia. Winsor led his team with 11 goals in six intercollegiate games in 1902 when Harvard finished in second place behind the team from Yale University.

In 1903, at an age of 23, Alfred Winsor took over the coaching duties of the Harvard University ice hockey team, and he became an instant success when the team won the 1903 intercollegiate ice hockey league series. Winsor became a mainstay as a coach for the Harvard team for 14 years, until 1917, and implemented a rigid defensive system that other teams felt a need to copy to match up against the crimson colored Harvard team.

Concurrently with his coaching career Winsor also continued to play amateur ice hockey, between 1903 and 1911 on the Boston Hockey Club and in 1912 on the ice hockey team of the Boston Athletic Association.

In 1932 Winsor coached the American ice hockey team at the Winter Olympics in Lake Placid where the American team finished with silver medals.

Alfred Winsor died on September 12, 1961 in Cataumet, Massachusetts at an age of 81. In 1973 he was inducted into the United States Hockey Hall of Fame.

gollark: BRB right back, skimreading wikipedia article.

gollark: It's funny to imagine that bureaucrats will have to write letters to the "technoking" or something.

gollark: I at least vaguely like him for being humorous and actually doing space things.

gollark: Well, it's uncool to (claim to) have beliefs which do not actually change your behavior or predictions at all.
