History
[edit]Acadia has fielded an ice hockey team since 1905. Up until 1954, the school played both college and senior hockey, stopping for only war years during World War I and World War II. Beginning in 1954–55, the Axemen played exclusively at the collegiate level and has seen some success over the years. Their pinnacle was during the 1990s when Acadia won two national championships.[3]
