Sault Ste. Marie 6 Winnipeg Selkirks 2
Winnipeg Selkirks 1 Sault Ste. Marie 0
Soo Greyhounds beat Winnipeg Selkirks 6 goals to 3.

George McNamara was chosen to be the team’s first coach and manager. It was McNamara who named the team arguing that “a Greyhound is much faster than a wolf”, in an obvious reference to the already established rival club, the Sudbury Wolves.

On March 31, 1924, close to 10,000 Sault Ste. Marie residents met the team when they arrived at the CPR Station bringing home the championship Allan Cup.
