Johns Hopkins Black and Blue

The Johns Hopkins Black and Blue (the university would not use the nickname Blue Jays until around 1920) were a men's collegiate ice hockey team representing Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland.

The team played in the first game when the North Avenue Ice Palace opened on December 26, 1894, and featured a seven-per-side game of ice hockey between a team of Johns Hopkins University students and players from the Baltimore Athletic Club. The game ended in a 2–2 draw. This may have been the first game of ice hockey played on a sheet of artificial ice and was one of the first in the United States. The game was 60 minutes, with two halves of 30 minutes. Attendance for the opening and game was recorded as about 2,500.

A second game was played on February 14th and resulted in a 2-1 Yale victory. The team would stop playing after the 1897-98 season when the ice make capabilities of the North Avenue Ice Palace was removed.
