Notre Dame Non-Varsity football teams
This is an incomplete list of Notre Dame football teams that did not have Varsity status between the introduction of rugby football rules to the University in 1887 to the present day. There are a wide variety and long history of non-varsity football teams, with the most common being the reserve and freshman teams. From the late 1880s to the early 1920s, the University also supported Junior (high school) and minim (grammar school) programs, which also fielded their own football teams throughout the era. While the frosh and junior varsity teams were discontinued in the 1970s, the intramural league at the University (known colloquially as interhall) has become a near-unique campus staple , from its humble beginnings in 1892 to its modern playoff format that includes all thirty-one of the residence halls at Notre Dame.

Although contests by the name of "football" had been played at the University of Notre Dame as early as 1873, they bore a stronger resemblance to soccer or early rugby and could be composed of up to two hundred players, far different from even the varsity football that was played across the country during the era. These teams were usually divided into the freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior classes, or were named the "Reds", "Blues", or "Whites". Most of these contests were played for a barrel of apples from a nearby orchard.

According to Notre Dame's RecSports department, rudimentary football had existed at the University since the late 1860s, and the first recorded contest was detailed in an October 24th 1885 edition of the Scholastic, a campus publication. Although games of the same playstyle had existed for years, the article did contain a lengthy description of the game as it was played prior to the introduction of more orthodox rules after the University’s game against Michigan.

Badin Hall
The Manual Labor school of Notre Dame was a trade school for orphaned children, and existed on campus from 1843 to 1917. From its establishment until the Great University Fire of 1879, the school was carried out in the Main Building. However, after the fire the school needed a new permanent location, which it found in 1897 after moving from their previous spot on wheels. The old structure was demolished in favor of a permanent brick building, and this building was named St. Joseph hall. The hall team of St. Joseph enjoyed relative success around the dawn of the 20th century, recording a total of five split or outright championships from 1898 to 1908.

After the Manual Labor School was disestablished in 1917, the hall was renovated and converted into a dormitory. This dormitory was renamed to Badin Hall, after Reverend Stephen Badin.

Brownson Hall (Main Building)
Brownson hall was the second oldest hall at Notre Dame, established in 1855, and was among the first two teams to establish and field an interhall football team (the other being Sorin) in 1890. The Brownsonites were a fixture in interhall football seasons from mid 1890s till the student dormitory was converted to a building for the Sisters of the Holy Cross. The Brownsonites won interhall football titles in 1899, 1901, 1905, 1907... (STILL NEED TO RESEARCH THE REST OF THEIR SEASONS)

Corby Hall
Corby hall was originally constructed as part of the University's Golden Jubilee celebration of 1895. It was initially created to house the priests of the Congregation of the Holy Cross, but was converted to a residence for the student body as the University expanded. During this period of student residence, lasting roughly from the early 1900s to the mid 1930s, the residence hall fielded arguably the most successful football program during this era. After their first team appeared in 1902, the Corbyites claimed a partial or outright title in 1903, 1906, 1907, 1909, 1910, 1911... (STILL NEED TO RESEARCH THE REST OF THEIR SEASONS INTO THE 1930s)

Walsh Hall
Established in 1909, Walsh hall became the second-oldest hall football team that is still used as a Dormitory to the present day. The first Walsh hall football team was fielded just a month after the first students arrived at the new residence.

Law School
Notre Dame Law School was established in 1869, and continues to operate on the University into the present day. However, their presence on the football field was incredibly rare. Only one confirmed contest can be attributed to the Law Department, that being a 10–0 loss to the S. M. Specials of Sorin hall on October 29, 1896. One additional contest was scheduled with the "Hardly Ables" of Brownson hall a week prior, but whether or not this contest was ever played is unknown. J. L. Silver was the elected captain for this law school team. 5 years later, a team known as the "Junior Laws", which may or may not have been a representative team of the law department, lost 6 to 0 against Brownson hall. Of the many departments that contributed and maintained a football team at any point in time during Notre Dame's history, the law department may have offered the smallest contribution to the total contests played at the University.

Junior Department and the original Carroll Hall
The original Carroll hall housed the Junior department of Notre Dame, which was a preparatory school for ages 13-17 located in the west wing of the main administration building. The juniors were arguably the most active program for football in the 1890s. In their most prolific year (1895), the department featured over ten teams and played at least 32 combined contests. Notable teams during this era were the Carroll hall anti-specials, which compiled an 11–0 record against campus and off-campus teams in 1899. The junior department became obsolete in 1924, leaving Carroll hall vacant until 1946 when it was suppressed to make room for office space, and the name retired.

In 1966, Notre Dame purchased a building previously under the administration of the Brothers of the Holy Cross. This structure was turned into a dormitory, and renamed to the modern-day Carroll hall.

1887–1888
On October 30, 1887, a rugby football association of Notre Dame was formed for future activities in the sport. Two days later elections were held for the association officers, with Brother Paul C.S.C. appointed as the first president. Elected captains George A. Houck and Joe Cusack led the first rugby football teams, playing under the names of each captain. The 1887 fall season was composed of only two practices, with the association waiting until the spring to resume play. By the spring season of 1888, Cusack was replaced by Frank Fehr as captain.

First intramural rugby football game
Just two days after the first rugby football association was established by Brother Paul, two "elevens" got together and played a single inning of what would become the first intramural rugby football game at the University of Notre Dame. The two sides were captained by Joe Cusack and George Houck, two members of what was the first "varsity" team in 1887. The only other information given on the otherwise-unimportant contest was the score, a 8-4 victory for Captain Houck, and the rosters for both squads. Besides rush-line, which was the term used for the offensive line around the center before they were given specific titles for their positions like guard, tackle, and end, there is only one abnormality among the roster. The fullback was replaced by an unknown position, goal, which was held by the Prudhomme brothers. As there is no play-by-play account, its impossible to know if this was a synonymous term for fullback or if it was a unique position to guard the endzone.

1888–1889
With the football association reorganized in late September, the first contest of the season occurred between the Blacks of captain Edward Sawkins, and the Browns of captain E. Melady. The teams were named on account of the brown and black trousers that distinguished the two squads, the trousers ordered from Chicago the year prior. The two elected RFA captains selected the Specials team for the 1888 season, including their captain Edward Prudhommee. By the spring of 1889 the new team captains were Joe Hepburn (blacks) and Stafford Campbell (browns), and in a few weeks they were replaced by E. Melady for the blacks and F. Albright for the browns. A local championship was organized by the captains for the next season, with the format of best-of-five employed to choose the winner between the teams. Albright soon left the University and Edward Coady was made the final new captain of the 1888-1889 season.

Intramural season
All three departments played some form of intramural football during the 1888 season. Along with the aforementioned collegiate Black and Brown teams, the Junior department fielded two teams under the captaincy of McGrath and S. Fleming.

1889–1890
The Rugby Football Association reorganized on September 17th with Brother Paul once again serving as director. Edward Prudhomme was selected as the captain, with Frank Fehr serving as assistant-captain.

Junior Department
The Juniors were reported to play daily football games amongst themselves. On November 10 a meeting of the Junior Rugby Football Association was held, with the elected president Brother Leander presiding, and the new intramural captains were decided as L. Reidinger and E. Baltes. Jas. McPhillips was chosen as captain of the Junior specials. The spring season captains were Messrs. Hannin and Calvert, which represented the South and North teams respectively.

1890–1891
This season of interhall football was shorter than its predecessors because of a growing popularity for, or regression back to, "old style football", which was essentially a variant soccer and rugby, played with up to 100 players per team. Many rugby football players also played on their hall teams for old style football games, casting further doubt as to which games to include in the interhall gridiron season. These matchups were the only football games of any kind at the University of Notre Dame, as the varsity had taken a two year hiatus in 1890 and 1891.

Interhall season
After an official challenge had been presented to Brownson by the Sorinites, on November 11, 1890, the two halls played in what was described as the "University Football Championship". Brother Paul, who had been an instrumental presence in intramural football games over the last three years, officiated the contest. After a scoreless first half, a safety near the end of the game gave Sorin the first interhall football championship of Notre Dame.

Brownson hall
The Brownsonites participated in the very first interhall football game at the University of Notre Dame. They were captained by Tom Coady.

Sorin Hall
Sorin hall became the first interhall champion since the sport's inception at the University of Notre Dame three years prior. They defeated Brownson by a single safety in what was billed as the "University Football Championship". They were captained by Edward Prudhomme.

Interhall season
The 1891 interhall season was inaugurated with a meeting of the Notre Dame Athletic Association, which elected Dezera Cartier and Tom Coady as the new football captains for the intramurals. A varsity captain was not elected due to uncertainty over the season, which was confirmed as no intercollegiate games were played in 1892.

Junior Department (Carroll Hall)
The junior department may have played indoor football games during the fall of 1891. However, these contests could very well have been soccer.

1892–1893
At the annual first meeting of the Notre Dame Athletic Association, once again under the leadership of Brother Paul, Patrick Coady was chosen as the Varsity football captain, with J. Combe as his assistant captain. Charles Roby and John Flannigan were chosen as the "rugby football" team captains, which likely referred to the intramural teams. Only one contest was played in the 1893 season.

Junior Department (Carroll Hall)
Carroll students played amongst themselves during the 1892 season. Thomas Cavanaugh served as captain of the "Carroll special rugby team". The Carrollites may have served as the University's third team.

Manual Labor School
The Manual Labor School, which was housed in St. Joseph's hall, was an established orphanage and trade school at Notre Dame. The school was discontinued in 1919.

1893–1894
The 1893-1894 non-varsity football season saw the first confirmed ex-minim vs minim and Carroll hall vs ex-Carrollites campus rivalry games take place, and was also notable for being the first season in which other non-varsity teams began scheduling contests with teams off of Notre Dame campus. Rule changes at the spring meeting of the University athletic association barred ringers (players who did not reside in the department of the team, or did not attend the University at all) and created new rules for the selection of football captains.

Interhall season
Two halls competed in the 1893/1894 interhall season. The Carrollites of Carroll hall, and the "Ex-Carrollites" of Brownson played in a best-of-five tournament, and the Carrollites won the championship in a tiebreaker on January 18, 1894.

Junior Department (Carroll Hall)
Carroll hall was the 1893 interhall football champion, defeating Brownson Hall (known as the Ex-Carrollites) in a six game series. Carroll compiled a 3–2–1 record against Brownson, under the captaincy of Mr. Klees. In January of 1894, the Carrollites lost to Sorin Hall, putting their claim to the interhall championship in jeopardy. The Juniors had three football fields for the 1893 season.

Brownson Hall
Brownson Hall, who played as the ex-Carrollites in the 1893 senior interhall football season, placed second between the two hall teams. They compiled a 2–3–1 record against the Carrollites, losing 10 to 4 in the championship game. The Brownsonites may have been captained by Tom Cavanaugh.

Manual Labor School (St. Joseph Hall)
The Manual labor school organized their football team around mid-October. John Murphy was appointed to captain of the specials, J. Santer was made captain of the first eleven, and J. Barry captained the seconds. It's unclear as to the difference between the special and first teams in this particular scenario. Sadly this distinction would not be resolved, as the school discontinued their fall football program a month later. They briefly reorganized for a game against a local South Bend team on January 26, 1894.

1894
At the annual Athletic Association meeting, the date for future first meetings was set at the first Saturday after September 15. 1894 is the first year in which no football contests were played at Notre Dame in the spring or winter seasons.

Brownson Hall
Coyne was the captain for the Ex-Carrollites.

Junior Department (Carroll Hall)
Carroll hall was affiliated in many football contests during the 1894 season. While they began the season as a unified team, the hall was eventually divided into a specials and anti-specials team around late October.

Carroll Specials
The specials team was captained by Miles.

Carroll anti-specials
The anti-specials, also known at the second specials, was captained by George McCarmick (at least in their game against Chapin Park).

Sorin Hall
Sorin hall fielded two teams for the season, known as the "shorties" and the "lengthies". Frank D. Hennessey captained the lengthies.

St. Joseph Hall
The St. Joseph specials did not play any interhall contests during the 1894 season. However, they played a single game against the Lowell Heights team of South Bend and won 18 to 0. This served as the first off-campus game by the hall football program.

1895
The 1895 campus season was the most diverse and encompassing to date, extending to every hall in the University, and included programs of first, secondary, and even tertiary elevens.

Brownson Hall
The Ex-Carrollites were the last hall to develop a football team for the 1895 season. Around October 12, challenges were issued to the high schools of Niles and South Bend, and to the St. Joseph, Sorin Shorties, and Carroll hall teams. Leo Healy was appointed to the captain position. By the time coach H. G. Hadden arrived in early November to coach the Varsity elevens, Brownson hall had five distinct football teams in play (the majority of which likely formed within a few weeks of the coach's arrival). These teams were the Wranglers/Hardly Ables, Ex-Carrollites, Mushrooms, Shamuses, and the Society. The game against LaPorte High School was originally designated to the Notre Dame Freshman team, but on the day of the game the team were said to be reserves. A week later, the Ex-Carrollites were given credit for the large victory, under the coaching of H. G. Hadden.

Brownson-Sorin Fort Wayne team
The Fort Wayne men, as they was known, were composed of Brownson and Sorin hall students that either lived in or claimed to be from Fort Wayne, Indiana.

Junior Department (Carroll Hall)
For the fourth consecutive season, Carroll hall possessed the most football teams, with a special, anti-special, and third eleven on the field in 1895. These groups were further divided into two teams, which played practice games against each other to develop new material and prepare for interhall or off-campus contests. William? Monahan was elected to captain of the specials, beating out Burns and and Cornell for the position. A month later, Frank Druiding was chosen as the captain of the anti-specials. Elections for the second special and anti-special captains was held in the second week of November, with the specials choosing D. Cottin and the anti's electing C. Shillington. On the week of thanksgiving, the Carroll second anti-specials defeated a picked team from South Bend. The second specials were originally picked for the game, but the difference in weight was too severe.

The scheduled contest with the Highland View Jr., of South Bend, was scheduled with the Carroll hall anti-specials.

An assorted team from Carroll hall played against an assorted team of South Bend during the Christmas break of 1895.

A team that may have been the Junior department Shutout Chapin Park High School around thanksgiving.

Sorin Hall
For the second year, Sorin hall was divided into two teams, collectively known as the shorties and the lengthies. The Shorties were coached by Edward? Brennan, and captained by Pritchard. Marmon and Burns co-captained the lengthies team. Although the lengthies disbanded around mid-October, the Shorties played through the entire season.

Interhall season
The 1896 interhall season was not as rich as the year before in terms of the number of games played (at least in known games, as many interhall contests between these early club teams were simply not recorded ). Club names that were considered too vulgar for the Scholastic were printed in initials, examples of these being the D. D. F's and S. M. Specials

Brownson Hall
Brownson hall housed three football teams during the 1896 season, each with their own background and nickname. The Ex-Carrollites were the eldest of the triad, having been the first football team to represent Brownson hall back in the 1893 season. The Hardly Ables (also known as the Wranglers) returned for their second year on the gridiron after a 1–1 the previous year. Finally, a new team was established under the name "Never-Sweats". The Hardly Ables chose Henry Taylor to serve as officiator and captain of the group. Massey captained the Never-Sweats. The Hardly-Ables finished 2–0, the Never-Sweats 2–1, and the Ex-Carrollites 0–1.

Brownson-Sorin Fort Wayne team
For the second year in a row a team was formed among the students of Notre Dame who were born or grew up in Fort Wayne, Indiana. E. Gilmarth was selected as captain.

Little Rocks
The Little Rocks club team was one of many interhall level teams in 1896 that did not necessarily represent a particular residence hall. According to one report the Little Rocks piled victory after victory during the season, although only a few of their contests were recorded. Unrecorded games were common in 1896, due to the large diversity of teams. The Little Rocks finished undefeated, with a record of at least 3–0.

Junior Department (Carroll Hall)
On October 5, the Carroll's elected John F. Fennessey to captain their specials team. In a contest against a picked team from nearby South Bend, the local team defeated Carroll hall, the first time an off-campus team had been victorious over a residence hall in football. The Carrollites disbanded in early December with a 5–3 record, including 5–2 in campus play.

Sorin Hall
For the second year, Sorin hall fielded two football teams, the "Short and Longs" (likely a combination of the Shorties and Lengthies from the previous year) and the S. M. Specials. The S.M specials compiled a 1–1 record.

St. Joseph Hall
St. Joseph met and formed their football team around the end of September, and decided on Sullivan for captain. The hall team played the 2nd most recorded games during the 1896 season, but lost all of them to finish 0–4.

Notre Dame Law School
At an athletics meeting on September 27, the law school of Notre Dame decided to establish their first football team. A week later the class elected J. L. Silver as their first captain. The law team played a single known game, a 10–0 loss against the S. M. specials of Sorin hall.

Interhall season
The 1897 interhall season contained many teams that did not identity with any particular hall, even if the team was primarily composed of students from a single hall. Among the "name teams" of 1897, including those that did and did not represent a particular hall, there were the Ex-Carrollites (Brownson hall), S. M. Specials (Sorin hall), Cannibals (Carroll hall), Canary Birds (Captain Tom Cavanaugh of Brownson hall?), Full-breeds, the heavyweights (Captain Mulcrone), the S. M. A's (coached by John M. Byrne ), Skeeky's Colts (Captain Skeekey?), and the Crackerjacks.

S. M. Specials
The S. M. Specials were re-organized in late September, and promised to be a fighting force for the coming season. They may have been coached by Mr. Landers, and scheduled games against outside their campus like the Carlisle Indians.

Junior Department
The Juniors of 1897 elected Alfred Becker for the captain position by a near unanimous vote.

Junior Department (Carroll Hall)
A unified Carroll hall football team was established on October 4 or 5, 1898. MacDonald was chosen as the captain, and on the same day they defeated Sorin hall 12 to 0. By November, the Specials were coached by Albert Fortin, a right tackle for the varsity team, in preparation for their game against Niles High School.

Ex-Minims
The Ex-Minims, in their third year of interhall play, versed a local team from South Bend in a thanksgiving day matchup. The ex-minims were in Notre Dame's Junior Department, specifically those who had participated in the Minims program.

Cerveras
The Caveras of Brownson hall began their 1898 season with a win over S. M. They were captained by Mr. Herbert.

S. M.
The S. M. football team of Sorin hall (abbreviated in the Scholastic for its apparently vulgar connotation) returned for a third season, one of the two football teams to represent Sorin hall in 1898. .

The Philopatrians
The Philopatrians society established a football team at their third regular meeting of 1898 on October 6, and elected Mr. Higgins as captain. It's unclear which hall they represented, but they were either the second Sorin hall football team discussed by the Scholastic or a Brownson Hall team. The society attempted to schedule a game with the philopatrians society of Carroll hall, although its unknown if this challenge was ever accepted.

St. Joseph Hall
St. Joseph hall played a major part in the 1898 season. They may have have ever had a unified, recognized hall team, but they did submit "a team from St. Joseph hall" to play against the other hall teams.

Brownson Hall
The Brownson hall team of 1899 was captained by Rob Brown. They defeated the Falcons of South Bend 59 to 0 on November 12.

Captain? Wilde's team
A team led by Mr. Wilde defeated a picked team from South Bend 11 to 0.

Junior Department (Carroll Hall)
The Carroll specials were captained by Mr. McGarrett, and then Mr. Krug after the former resigned in October.

Carroll anti-specials
The Carroll hall anti-specials were captained by quarterback George Weidman. In a November 11 article in the Scholastic, the student newspaper asserted that the Carroll anti-specials were the only remaining organized football team at the University (with the exception of the Varsity). Near the end of the season, the anti-specials were given wide attention for compiling a 10–0 record against a mix of secondary school and interhall opponents (the first recorded instance of an interhall football team accomplishing this feat). They also had outscored their opponents by a total of 175 to 5. They were coached by James McWeeney for their game against Niles High School. By the end of the season the antis had a record of at least 11–0, and had outscored their opponents by a total of 191 to 5. After a banquet to commemorate the 1899 season, the anti-specials decided to create a fully organized athletic association for their football and baseball teams. A name team name was chosen, the anti-specials now known as the "Preps". They also chose their team colors, purple and white. A. Krug was elected as the new captain of the football, but a contingency was put in place that George Weidman could be captain if he chose to come back to Notre Dame for the next fall.

Carroll Hall youngsters
A picked team of "youngsters" from Carroll hall defeated a picked team from South Bend on November 12, 18 to 0.

Carroll Hall Spanish speakers
A team was formed among the Spanish speakers of Carroll hall around late November. Mr. Vivanco was elected captain but quickly resigned, so D. Madera signed on as the new head of the eleven. The Spanish speakers lost 5 to 0 against a picked team from South Bend. The game was called early when a player reportedly "began chasing a coon up a tree". It's unclear which team this condemnable member represented.

Corby Hall
Corby hall organized their football team in September of the 1899 season.

Junior? Anti-specials
The anti-specials may have been from the junior department.

St. Joseph Hall
The St. Joseph specials played a number of games during the 1899 season, including a 20 to 0 win over the All-Stars of South Bend.

Interhall season
Talk of an interhall championship began near the end of the 20th century, and continued in 1900.

Brownson Hall
A team to represent Brownson hall in the Interhall football championship was arranged in late October, with Mr. McGlue elected to the captain position on October 29.

Van Dyke's team
A Brownson hall team captained by James A. Van Dyke defeated the Morgan Park Juniors of South Bend 34 to 0 on October 21st.

Preps
The Preps, formerly known as the anti-specials, began practice on September 9th under the management of Mr. Clark, and under the captaincy of Mr. Krug. After their great success from the previous year, the Scholastic began to devote a column to documenting the team's contests, receiving more attention than any non-varsity team before them. The Preps lost a game around November 17 to Benton Harbor, their first defeat in two years. They compiled a 5–1 record (2–0 interhall, 3–1 against off-campus teams), and outscored their opponents by a total of 94 to 18.

Riley's team
A Carroll hall team captained by R. Steward Riley defeated the Hubs of South Bend 23 to 0 on October 21st.

Corby Hall
The Corbyites reorganized their representative football team in early October, with Joe Clyne as captain.

Janitor Bones' All-Stars
A team known as "Janitor Bones' All-Stars" was composed of football players from every residence hall except the Minims department, and was organized to play against the Seneca Athletic Organization on November 11.

Rough and Ready
A team known as the "Rough and Ready" was organized at Sorin hall on October 6 under the management of C. Depeuw Yockey. They scheduled their first match against the Minims for November 31.

St. Joseph Hall
A varsity team was established for the hall in September, with Mr. Corley acting as head coach. A third team was formed around November 10, with Mr. Foertsch elected captain.

Notre Dame alumni
A team composed of old Notre Dame football players played the Varsity until a second team could be formed to practice with the squad.

Interhall season
Although no champion was stated outright, Sorin hall may have had the best argument for interhall champion of 1901. The Brownsonites were reported to have claimed the interhall championship after defeating St. Joseph hall 5 to 0, their fourth consecutive victory. 3 days later, a Brownson hall team (it is unclear if this was the same team) lost to an aggregation from Sorin hall. This would give the championship to Sorin, but if the Brownson hall team they defeated was not the same as the championship team, than Brownson hall won the championship.

Brownson Hall
A team to represent Brownson hall was formed in early October, and were captained by Mr. Hogan. The Brownsonites compiled

Carroll Preps
The 1901 Carroll Hall Preps began their season with a dominant win over the Mexican Tigers on October 13. They were captained by Mr. Quinlan.

Carroll Specials
It is unclear if the specials were synonymous with "Varsity" by this point in time. They may or may not have represented Carroll hall in their interhall contests. Mr. Fleischer was captain.

St. Joseph Hall
The St. Joseph athletic association had its first meeting on September 26, with Thomas A. Toner elected to captain.

St. Joseph Buffaloes
The Buffaloes of St. Joseph hall were named the 1901 Minor hall team champions with a record of at least 2–1 and probably 4–1.

Brownson Hall
Brownson played only one recorded interhall football games in the 1902 season. However, they did defeat the Niles High School team at Niles, Michigan on Thanksgiving Day. At the end of the season Tom Cahill was re-elected to captain, and a quick summary was given of the team. The article implied that the Brownsonites had played multiple many games, and won all but one of them, the loss being against South Bend High School at the beginning of the season.

Trojans
The Carroll Hall Trojans of 1902 were known as the tigers from 1899 to 1901. They were a de-facto second or third team during those seasons, but claimed to have now become the first team after defeating the Carroll second team (possibly the Preps?) 15 to 0 on September 18. Charles Winter was elected captain.

Spartans
The Spartans of Carroll hall were essentially a secondary team, after the Trojans. The first recorded instance of a Spartan team was mentioned in a game against the Trojans on September 28.

Interhall team
A consolidated team made up of the best players from each residence hall was established in late September, with Grover C. Davis originally serving as captain, then Mr. Stephan, then Mr. Petritz beginning with the game against Culver Military Academy, and finally a permanent captain was found in Ben Medley. The team scheduled a diverse array of high school opponents from Northern Indiana, the season commencing with a game against South Bend High School. By the end of the season the interhall team had compiled a 7–1 record (not including their win by forfeit over Culver) and outscored their opponents by a total of 112 to 6. In a summary of their season, the Scholastic reported that the team had defeated the high school football champions of Northern Indiana and Michigan, those being South Bend and Benton Harbor High Schools respectively.

Notre Dame seminary
Mr. Farley's Seminary football team of 1902 compiled a 4–0 record against interhall opponents, including the Minim specials and various teams of Carroll hall. They outscored their opponents by a total of 53 to 7.

Interhall season
The first known interhall schedule was published in the sixth edition of the 1903 Scholastic after a meeting of the managers of Brownson, Corby, Sorin, and St. Joseph halls. Each team was scheduled to play two games against their other interhall opponents. It was also agreed that Varsity members that weren't expected to earn a monogram could play on their respective hall teams, heightening the level of experience and competition between the squads.

Brownson Hall
This year's Brownson interhall team elected their captain, W. Heiney Opfergelt, in late September. After Ogfergelt resigned from the team, Mr. Conway was elected to replace him as captain. Henry McGlew also began to help coach the hall team, with the expectation that they would claim the 1903 interhall championship.

Junior Department (Carroll Hall)
At the beginning of the season, an article in the Scholastic reported that half a dozen Carroll hall teams were active for the 1903 season.

Carroll Ex-Minims
The Ex-Minims of Carroll hall, founded in 1896, played multiple contests during the 1903 season.

Carroll Trojans
The Trojans of Carroll hall returned in 1903 under coach Henry J. McGlew (two years before he became head coach of the Varsity team).

Corby Hall
At a meeting on September 25, the Corbyites elected J. Patterson to captain of the football team.

Sorin Hall
Sorin was the last residence hall to organize a football team for the 1903 season. Around October 3 they elected Harry Hogan to captain. By the end of October, the Sorinites had acquired a mascot in the form of a large black crow named Bert that they had bagged in the woods behind Cartier Field.

St. Joseph Hall
The St. Joseph hall team was reorganized on September 14, with Mr. J. W. Sheehan acting as a temporary captain and Mr. T. Toner as coach. On October 3 J. P. O'Shea was given the permanent captaincy at a meeting to elect the officers for the St. Joseph first team, also known as the Specials.

Ex-Juniors
The Ex-Juniors team, which had been in existence since at least 1901, was either a freshman collegiate team or a senior Notre Dame preparatory school squad.

Sophomore
A sophomore class team (possibly known as the English and Classic) was formed for the 1903 season at a meeting in October. The team was coached, captained, and managed by Tommy Hammer.

Interhall season
The 1904 interhall season began with only Corby, Sorin, and St. Joseph, Brownson having decided not to field a team for the season. Corby were declared interhall champion after defeating Sorin hall in the only regular season interhall contest. It's possible that other interhall games were played and simply not recorded, as was common during this era.

Brownson Hall
Although they had elected a manager and captain, a Brownson hall team was never organized.

Ex-Juniors
The Ex-Juniors, likely the same as the Ex-Carrollites of prior years, was the only known team to represent Brownson hall for the 1904 season.

Junior Department (Carroll Hall)
In their contest against Benton Harbor around the week before November 5, the Carrollites were tied with the high school/college school a touchdown and goal a piece, but Benton Harbor decided to forfeit the contest to catch the early train home. The team that played for Carroll hall was composed of the best players from Brother Vital and Captain Heyl's picked teams.

Ex-Minims
The Ex-Minims were coached by Henry J. McGlew, and were seen as one of the best "little teams" at Notre Dame since the infamous Carroll Preps of 1899.

Brother Vital's "Wonders"
This Carroll hall team was composed of smaller juniors in Carroll hall, sponsored and picked by Brother Vital of the University.

Corby Hall
The Corbyites were the first to organize for the 1904 season, and were seen as the frontrunners for the interhall football champion. They elected L. E. Wagner to captain. An article in the Scholastic from 1906 claims that Corby hall was the 1904 interhall football champions, as the contest against Sorin was seen as a championship game.

Sorin Hall
The Sorinites were the last to organize for the 1904 season. They elected Dan O'Connor as their new captain.

Interhall season
In the 1905 interhall season, the Ex-Juniors may have been considered a second representative team of Brownson hall. There was never any discussion over an interhall champion during the interhall season, but in 1906 an article from the Scholastic claims that Brownson hall won the championship of 1905. This assertion is not clear as the writer does not specify which Brownson team they were referring to. The team by the identity of Brownson hall compiled (at least) a 0–1 record, while the Ex-Juniors compiled a 2–2 record. Among the recorded games, it seems that St. Joseph hall also has a fair claim to the championship because of their victory over the Ex-Juniors.

Brownson Hall
On November 11 the representative team of Brownson hall played against Columbia A. A. of nearby South Bend, supposedly for the second time this season. An article from the year after the 1905 season claimed that Brownson Hall was the 1905 interhall football champion. However, this claim is not backed by any sufficient evidence to point to Brownson as the undisputed No. 1 team on campus.

Ex-Juniors
The Ex-Juniors, also known as the Ex-Carrollites, were a prominent player in the 1905 interhall football games. They were seen as a smaller representative team of Brownson hall. They were also captained by Mr. Roan.

Brother Vital's team
For this season it is unclear whether or not Brother Vital was sponsoring the first team of Carroll hall or if he fielded a picked team of his choice. The team was captained by Mr. Hilton.

Corby Hall
The Corbyites were captained by Mr. Keach, who arrived shortly after the game with the Ex-Juniors. After a farmhouse near the University was razed, the new land was given to Corby hall to serve as a permanent campus. This gave the Corby football and baseball teams ample room to practice.

Interhall season
Brownson, Corby, and St. Joseph competed together during the 1906 interhall season. In their first game, St. Joseph defeated Corby 6–0, but used Varsity players in the contest. Because of this the game was declared off and a rematch was scheduled for November 3 at Cartier Field. The two halls tied 0–0, and so the championship was claimed by both teams.

Brownson Hall
The Brownsonites were captained by Mr. Burdick.

Corby Hall
Corby hall tied St. Joseph for the title of 1906 interhall football champions. They were captained by Mr. Kelly.

St. Joseph Hall
St. Joseph hall tied Corby for the title of 1906 interhall football champions. They were captained by Mr. Duffy.

Tigers
The Tigers were the second team of St. Joseph hall.

1907
The 1907 non-varsity football season saw a rejuvenation of many hall teams throughout the University.

Brownson Hall
Brownson hall was the 1907 interhall football champion according to an article in the Scholastic's Football Review.

Junior Department (Carroll Hall)
A Carroll hall football team was coached by professor Joseph T. Lantry in 1907. They were captained by Mr. McLain, who scheduled many games against local and prep football teams.

Corby seconds
The Corby hall second team was captained by Champ Blackman.

Sorin Hall
The Sorinites were captained by Rufus Waldorf.

The Dome
The first known All-Interhall football team was selected by University yearbook, The Dome. Brownson received the most selections with six, followed closely by Corby with four, and St. Joseph in third with a single player selected.

Alumni
In their annual contest against the Varsity, the aggregation of former Notre Dame all-stars tied the collegiate team 0–0.

Interhall season
A list of interhall sports rules were published in the 9th edition of the weekly Scholastic, and imposed some restrictions on the hall's away games against off-campus opponents. The nine rules had been adopted from the fall of 1905 to the summer of the 1908 season. Only two official interhall games were recorded during the 1908 interhall season, the lowest since the 1891/1892 season and tied for the least all-time in campus games. The championship was officially left undecided by the Athletic Board, although the 1909 edition of the University yearbook, The Dome, recognized that St. Joseph held the best claim to the title with their victory over Corby, which previously tied Brownson.

St. Joseph Hall
St. Joseph hall was coached by Mr. Ryan, and were 1908 interhall football champions due to their come-from-behind victory against Corby in one of only two interhall contests played during the 1908 season.

Interhall season
The 1909 interhall season was played on the basis of a round-robin tournament, with each of the five teams playing each other once to decide the championship. With a 8–0 victory over Brownson, Corby attained the championship banner for football. By the end of the scholastic year, the Corbyites won all four of the major interhall competitions (Baseball, Basketball, Football, and Track and Field), losing only in bowling to Walsh hall.

Ex-Carrollites/Ex-Juniors
The Ex-Carrollites of Brownson hall re-established their athletic club on September 23 and elected Mr. O. Hozy to captain of the football team.

Junior Department (Carroll Hall)
John Wasson coached the Carrollites for a short period of time in early October.

Corby Hall
Corby hall was the 1909 interhall football champion, defeating Brownson 8 to 0 in the championship game on Cartier Field. They were captained by Leo Fish and coached by Father Farley.

Sorin Hall
J. J. Brislin was elected to captain, and Mr. Collins served as coach.

St. Joseph Hall
The St. Joseph hall team was captained by C. McGrath and coached by Red Miller, big brother to a member of the legendary Four Horsemen, Don Miller.

Walsh Hall
Walsh hall, the newest addition to the interhall system since Corby hall organized their first team in 1902, organized a team while the new dormitory was still undergoing final construction. John O'Neill was elected to captain in late October, and Walsh played their very first game just days later, a 0–0 tie against the Ex-Juniors/Ex-Carrollites of Brownson hall.

Football Review
The annual Scholastic Football Review compiled a single team based on the selections of various hall coaches. The center position was the only position that did not include any selections. O'Brien, Howard, and Murphy of St. Joseph, Harry Hebner, Dolan, and John Mehlen of Corby, Herbert Keeffe and Rice of Sorin, and William Dunphy of Brownson were mentioned to have also received votes, although for which positions is unknown.

The Dome
The Dome picked a single team, plus a rare selection of the best referee and linesmen, who were chosen to be Lee Matthews and M. Lawrence Stoakes respectively.

Junior Civil Engineers
The Junior Civil Engineers created a football team for the 1909 season, with Mr. J. Engae serving as coach.

Junior Electrical Engineers
Following the precedent set by the Civils, the Junior Electrical Engineers organized a tentative team around early October.

Interhall season
An interesting article from the end of the interhall season brought up the fact that some men who were fitted for the Varsity team or the reserves were abandoning the team for more glory and their hall team. Because of this, the reserve team had suffered greatly, along with walk-ons for the Varsity team. The Scholastic highlighted how important the interhall games had become to the University, with a much greater attendance and general interest shown in the Corby-Sorin interhall championship game than the varsity's recent football game with Rose Polytechnic.

Brownson Hall
The Brownsonites were captained by Mr. Carroll.

Junior Department (Carroll Hall)
Carroll Hall organized their football team on September 22, with varsity captain Ralph Dimmick agreeing to coach the juniors.

Corby Hall
The Corbyites were the 1910 interhall football champions after defeating Sorin hall 12 to 6 on Cartier Field. The hall team was nicknamed the Braves. They were captained by Mr. Mortz.

Sorin Hall
George Washburn coached the Sorinites and managed to achieve runners-up recognition in the interhall season, losing to Corby 12 to 6 in the de-facto championship game. They were also captained by "Laz" Fish. The 1910 team was nicknamed the Bookies or Bookmen.

St. Joseph Hall
St. Joseph hall was captained by Mr. O'Brien.

Walsh Hall
The Walsh interhall team was seen as a frontrunner at the beginning of the 1910 season, and was coached by varsity end Joseph Collins.

Football Review
The annual Scholastic Football Review compiled two all-hall teams based on the selections of varsity captain Ralph Dimmick and the five hall coaches. The system was for the coaches was to pick the best players in every position that were not from their own interhall teams. Corby led the first team with six picks, followed in descending order by Sorin (2), Brownson (1), St. Joseph (1), and Walsh (1). Bill Hicks, Fred Gushurst, Keith Jones, Walter Yund, Roy Jones, and Arthur Larkin played in some capacity for the varsity football team during their collegiate careers, with Keith Jones even ascending to the position of team captain in 1914.

Gridiron Season
A magazine titled the Gridiron Season competed with the Scholastic on writing a detailed summary of the 1910 football season. They chose two all-interhall teams.

Interhall season
The 1911 interhall season was a productive one for the hall teams. There were five halls in interhall play, Brownson, Corby, Sorin, St. Joseph, and Walsh. Additionally, each hall (except Sorin, plus Carroll) organzied a "feather-weight" team composed of the younger hall students. These teams were the Brownson Owls, Carroll Foxes, Corby Wolves, and St. Joseph Ducks.

Brownson Hall
Mr. Lee coached the Brownsonites in their 1911 season.

Junior Department (Carroll Hall)
Carroll Hall was reported to have had two teams that played against one another each afternoon on the campus field.

Corby Hall
For the third consecutive year, the hall team of Corby managed to become 1911 interhall football champions. Martin J. Heyl was captain of the Corbyites. The hall team compiled a 2–0–1 interhall record, and outscored their opponents 9 to 5, all from field goals. Its certainly possible that Corby was the first and only hall team to win the interhall championship without having scored a single touchdown during the season.

Corby Wolves
The Corby Wolves were captained by G. J. McGladigan.

Sorin Hall
The Sorinites were captained by William Granfield. Due to cancellation of games because of a snow storm and the need for more study time, Sorin hall withdrew from interhall competition in early November, cancelling their last games with Corby and St. Joseph.

Walsh Hall
Harry M. Newning was given the captaincy of Walsh hall in September, while Don Hamilton served as coach.

Walsh Chicks
The Walsh chicks, a team composed entirely of students from the preparatory school, organized under Father McNamara for the 1911 season. The term "chicks" originated in the safety value section of the collegiate student newspaper.

Football Review
The annual Scholastic Football Review compiled two all-hall football teams based on the interhall coach selections under the supervision of assistant varsity coach, Donald Hamilton. Each coach was tasked with choosing two complete all-interhall teams, and as before could not pick their own men. They also had to pick a captain of each interhall team, which is represented in the table below by a (C). The coaches were also forbidden from choosing any member of the Sorin hall team due to their early withdrawal from the league. William Dunphy, Bill Hicks, Fred Gushurst, Harry Baujan, Tom Shaugnessy, and possibly Mr. Ryan, Williams and Harvat, played on the varsity football team in some capacity during their collegiate careers.

The Dome
The Dome published a single all-hall team in its annual summary of the interhall football season.

1912
The 1912 season saw the last major change in college football's scoring table, with the total for a touchdown increasing from five to six points.

Interhall season
A schedule for the 1912 season was released in early October. Five halls competed for the interhall championship of 1912, those being Brownson, Corby, Sorin, St. Joseph, and Walsh. One notable addition to the season was Knute Rockne's interhall coaching jobs, which with the Sorin and Corby halls were his first coaching roles for collegiate football teams. Corby, the reigning interhall champion of the past three seasons, was issued a loss by forfeit because of their refusal to play after a critical and controversial Brownson interception for a touchdown late in the game. A week later they lost 6 to 0 in a regulation game against St. Joseph hall, a team Corby had not tied or lost to since the interhall championship of 1908. St. Joseph also took the lead in the championship after this game and was eventually crowned interhall champions of 1912.

Brownson Hall
Brownson was captained by varsity halfback Joseph S. Pliska.

Junior Department (Carroll Hall)
The Carrollites were coached by Happy O'Donnell, and may have been captained by W. Bergfield.

Corby Hall
Basil Soisson was elected to captain in early October for the Corbyites. Knute Rockne also served as coach of the Corby team, which for the first time since 1908 did not win the interhall championship. In fact, they finished with only a single win on their record.

Corby Wolves
The Corby junior team, known as the Wolves, organized again after their debut season in 1911. Mr. Hassett was given the role of team captain. The hall team was commonly referred to as the Braves.

Sorin Hall
Knute Rockne, legendary coach of the Notre Dame varsity football team from 1918 to 1930, began his career with the job of "interhall coach" for the Sorin Hall team of 1912. Martin Heyl also served as captain. After Rockne left for Corby Hall, varsity end Daniel V. McGinnis stepped in as the new coach.

St. Joseph Hall
St. Joseph Hall was the 1912 interhall football champion. Buck Maloney served as coach and Nig Kane as captain. They compiled a 3–0–1 record against their interhall opponents, and outscored them by a total of 22 to 0. The hall team was commonly referred to as the Saints or the Huskies.

Walsh Hall
In 1912, Walsh was coached by varsity left end Charles Crowley, and captained by Harry Newning for the second consecutive season.

Walsh Preps
The Walsh junior team, known originally as the Chicks, organized again after their debut season in 1911. By the end of the season, the Preps were the only undefeated team in their class (losing only to an all-star residence hall team) and so claimed the light weight interhall championship of 1912.

Scholastic Football Review
The Scholastic published a two-team list of selections in their annual Football Review. Harry Baujan, John Voelkers, James Mathews, Albert King, and Emmett Keefe played on the varsity football team at some point in their collegiate careers.

The Dome
The Dome published a single all-hall team in its annual summary of the interhall football season. However, the Dome may have just copied the same list distributed by the Scholastic months prior, by which it would not count as an additional selector.

Interhall season
5 teams competed in the 1913 interhall football season, with representatives from Brownson, Corby, Sorin, St. Joseph, and Walsh halls. A few new rules defined the 1913 season, including allowing freshmen to compete on the hall teams and that the day students of Notre Dame would play for St. Joseph instead of Brownson as was done in previous years. A schedule for the 1913 season was released before games began on October 23, with two games a week for five weeks. In addition to the hall teams, several secondary teams were organized in each hall and played on a more sporadic schedule. Eligibility for these secondary teams required you to not have been a member of the varsity or interhall regular teams prior to joining.

Brownson Hall
Brownson was captained by Mr. Riedman.

Brownson Neversweats
The Neversweats were one of several secondary hall teams during the 1913 football season.

Junior Department (Carroll Hall)
A committee of four men was appointed in late September to pick two teams for Carroll Hall to play against each other in a five game series for the distinction of first team. The winning team also received monograms, and both received a banquet at the end of the season.

Corby Hall
In their twelfth season, Corby hall compiled a 0–1–2 record in the interhall league and a 1–1–2 record overall. They were coached by three well-known figures of their era, Knute Rockne, John Farley, and Al Feeney. Al Feeney, the modest member of the staff, played as a center for the 1913 varsity team. John "Pop" Farley was the captain of the varsity in 1900, and eventually became the namesake for Farley Hall. Knute Rockne would go on to become one of the best known college football coaches in history. Ironically, while he holds the highest winning percentage of any major college football coach, his record in interhall football was a paltry 2–5–4.

Corby Deacons
The Deacons were one of several secondary hall teams during the 1913 football season.

Sorin Hall
Raymond Rubio was elected captain of the 1913 team.

Sorin Lollipops
The Lollipops were one of several secondary hall teams during the 1913 football season.

Walsh Hall
Walsh Hall was the 1913 interhall football champion. They were coached by Deacon Jones, and elected Harry Baujan to captain them.

Walsh Chicks
The prep/secondary team of Walsh Hall re-organized again for the 1913 season under captain John O. Donahue.

Scholastic Football Review
The Scholastic published a two-team selection in their 1913 edition of the Football Review. Due to the new freshman rules, many notable football players that would go on to serve on the varsity in the 1910s joined the interhall squads for the 1913 season. Among the notable members, Charlie Bachman and Harry Baujan were both enshrined in the College Football Hall of Fame, and Stan Cofall became the varsity captain and an All-American during the 1916 season. George Holmes, James Odem, Leo O'Donnell, Hollis King, James Matthews, William Grady, Alfredo Morales, possibly Mr. Miller, and George Kowalski would also join the Fighting Irish in the next three seasons. In total, nine of the eleven picks for first-team All-Interhall and twelve overall were granted a spot on the varsity football team, three of which became All-Americans and two which were accepted into the CFHOF. The Review also chose an "All-Star Prep Selection" from the secondary and prep football teams of Brownson, Carroll, and Walsh. Since the Carrollites were included in the games it can be assumed that the entire league was composed of high school football players and that Brownson and Walsh halls must have temporarily housed some of the junior department members during the 1913-1914 scholastic year. A description of the pick read, "The following selection is made from the second preparatory teams. The first preparatory team is chosen entire for first place."

Christian Doctrine class
Two teams from the Christine doctrine class at Notre Dame played against each other in a game of football at Cartier Field on September 28. The two teams were coached by Fathers Hagerty and Joseph Burke.

Interhall season
A trophy was presented for the 1914 interhall champion that depicted a "regulation size metal football mounted in silver", and with a base of ebony. An interhall football schedule was approved on October 8. Although the season began on schedule, bad weather postponed many of the contests and almost every game in the last half of the season was cancelled permanently. After Sorin and Brownson tied on Thanksgiving Day, the trophy donated by Michael C. Calnon and George F. Hull was awarded to father Burke's chorus class instead, and both halls claimed the interhall championship. Concerns regarding the eligibility of players were paramount during the 1914 season, and led to the most disagreements as the season concluded. In a 4-1 decision between the five halls, the teams agreed that Sorin had used ineligible players during their season and so should forfeit each of their games. However, Sorin, the single dissenting vote, disagreed with this conclusion s the various halls would have everything to gain from the ruling. Whether the ruling was official is doubtful as the Dome still lists Sorin's 2–0–1 record.

Brownson Hall
Brownson Hall was captained by Mike McGrath. They compiled a 1–1–2 record, and 1–1–1 against interhall opponents. After tying Sorin 3 to 3 in the de-facto interhall championship game, Brownson became co-1914 interhall football champions.

Corby Hall
Corby Hall began practice on September 24. They compiled a 2–2 record overall, and 2–1 against interhall opponents.

Day Students (off–campus) team
An athletic association for the "day students" of Notre Dame was approved by the Athletic Board of Notre Dame in late October, but they were not allowed to participate in the interhall football season because many of the day students were already playing for Brownson Hall. The association was given desk space in the Carroll and Brownson Halls. An Off-Campus interhall team would not become established until the 1920 season.

Sorin Hall
Sorin Hall elected Shorty Hynes as team captain. They held their first practice on October 4. The team finished the season with a 2–0–1 record, all in interhall play. After tying Brownson in the de-facto championship on Cartier Field, the Sorinites were claimed co-1914 interhall football champions, although they had the best case of any halls in the league for the official championship.

St. Joseph Hall
Tobin was elected captain for the 1914 season. St. Joseph Hall finished the 1914 season with a 1–1 record, all in interhall play.

Walsh Hall
The Walsh Hall team was coached by Father Farley. Walsh finished with an 0–3 record against interhall opponents and 0–4 overall.

All-Interhall
It was decided that an All-Interhall team would not be selected for the 1914 season due to a lack of games played.

Interhall season
In their preseason article, the Scholastic announced interhall's 1915 football schedule, along with mentioning a silver cup that would be bestowed to the champion. The winner of the 1915 interhall season was given a silver loving cup donated by Frank Mayr, along with a watch chain to the most valuable interhall player. Brownson won the championship after their game with Corby, which was played in a large downpour that covered the field in "two feet of water and mud". Many of the games during the season were cancelled because of Sorin's resignation from the interhall league early in the 1915 season.

Brownson Hall
The Brownsonites were captained by Mr. Morales. With at least a 2–0–1 record, Brownson Hall was given the title of 1915 interhall football champions.

The Lilacs
The Lilac Manor was constructed for Notre Dame's English professor Maurice Francis Egan, who taught and lived at the University with his family from 1888 to 1896. Friends of Mr. Egan's had gifted the professor many Lilac bushes during his tenure, and these would serve as the namesake for his manor. After Egan left the manor, another professor named Charles Peterson lived in the home until 1913. After two years of housing other faculty members and post-graduate students, a small group of seventeen undergraduates were permitted to live in the Lilacs until a permanent school dormitory would open to house them. This group formed the Lilacs Athletic Association in early November and attempt to enter the interhall football season of 1915, although this was unfortunately unsuccessful.

Walsh Hall
Walsh was led by CFBHOF member Charlie Bachman and assistant Deacon Jones.

St. Joseph Hall
Albert Freund was elected football captain at an athletic meeting at the beginning of the season.

All-Interhall
The Scholastic published a single team in their annual Football Review. They were selected by the hall coaches and three members of the varsity team, Stan Cofall, Leo Stephan, and Emmett Keefe. Joseph Gargan, Norm Barry, Carleton Beh, William Allison, and possibly Mr. Miller played on the varsity football team at some point in their collegiate careers.

Interhall season
One major rule change before the 1916 season was barring any members of the freshman team from participating in interhall football. A schedule for the season was released on October 21 in the Scholastic. All games with St. Joseph Hall were cancelled because of their withdrawal from the league. Corby Hall was the 1916 interhall champion, defeating their opponents by record interhall margins of 64 to 0 across three contests. They received the "Mayr trophy", a silver cup donated by Mr. Mayr at the conclusion of the season.

Minor interhall season
For the first time, an interhall schedule was arranged and posted in the Scholastic for the minor, or light-weight hall teams of Brownson, Corby, and Walsh.

Brownson Bantams
The Brownson Chick team was coached by Norman Barry.

Junior Department (Carroll Hall)
The Carrollites of 1916 were captained by Mr. Soldani, who played as a right guard. The team compiled at least a 3–0 overall record, including a pair of wins against local South bend opponents and their defeat of the Ex-Carrollites in their annual rivalry. At the end of the season the Carroll team laid claim to the "Northern Indiana championship in the 135 lb class".

Corby Hall
The Corbyites were the 1916 interhall football champions. They were captained by "Cy" Kasper, compiled a 3–0 record and outscored their opponents by a score of 64 to 0, winning from undefeated Walsh Hall in the de-facto championship on November 26.

Corby Chicks
The Corby Chicks were coached by "Chief" Meyers. Although their exact record is under speculation, the team was declared champion of the minor hall teams of 1916 in the Scholastic's annual Football Review.

Sorin Hall
Richard Daley, captain of the varsity basketball team, was elected to captain of the Sorin football team for their 1916 season.

Walsh Hall
The first team of Walsh Hall was coached by Charlie Bachman.

Walsh Welterweights
The Walsh Chick team was coached by Father Hagerty, and captained by Mr. Moore.

All-Chick team
A team composed of the best players from each of the minor interhall chick teams was formed under captain "Chief" Meyers to play a game against the Culver Military Academy on Thanksgiving. The all-chick team was chosen by the referees and the four chick coaches, Reverend Cornelius Hagerty, Jerry Noonan, Norman Barry and Chief Meyers.

All-Interhall
The Scholastic published a two-team selection in their annual Football Review. However, instead of using hall coaches to pick the distinctions, the decisions were made by the interhall league referees. Thomas Spalding, Clyde Zoia, John Dixon, Hugh O'Neill, Frank Lockard, Joseph Brandy, and possibly Mr. Ryan, played on the varsity football team at some point in their collegiate careers.

1917
1917 was the first year in which World War One began to affect the college football landscape, with many collegiate football players from across the country being sent to military camps for training.

Interhall season
In their article on preseason "dope" for the interhall series, the Scholastic recognized Walsh Hall as having the most likely chance of winning the 1917 championship. An interhall schedule featuring only six games was released on October 27. By the end of the season Walsh had matched expectations by winning the championship with a 3–0 interhall record.

Brownson Hall
The Brownsonites were coached by Brother Casimir.

Ex-Minims
The Carroll Hall "Teenie Weenies", also known as the ex-minims, were captained by Mr. Watson. The Woodlawn Tigers, the team's opponent on November 18, may have been a campus team.

Corby Hall
The Corbyites were originally captained by Ted Sheehan,, but seem to have been led by Dave Philbin and David Hayes by the time they entered into the interhall season.

Sorin Hall
The Sorin team was led by Edward Madigan.

Walsh Hall
The first team of Walsh Hall may have been known as the Walsh Giants, is this is the name given to the name that defeated South Bend Athletic Club at the beginning of the season. They were coached by James "Muggs" Ryan. With a 3–0 interhall record, the Walshites became the 1917 interhall football champions.

The Scholastic Football Review
The Scholastic published a two-team selection in their annual Football Review. The notable officiators were also listed. The selections were made by a consensus from the interhall coaches and referees.

1918
1918 saw the greatest involvement by the United States in World War One, and dealt with the Spanish Flu. Many football game, particularly in the month of October, were cancelled due to concerns over the epidemic, including two for the varsity team. The rule on disbarring freshman from the varsity teams was temporarily rescinded because of the loss of players and talent, leading to a freshman team that served on the varsity as de-facto reserves.

Interhall season
Due to the current war and health crises, only one interhall football contest was played during the 1918 season. A champion was never explicitly mentioned because of the absence of a real interhall season, but by virtue of their 12–0 victory over the recently renamed Badin hall, the interhall team of Walsh hall had the best claim to the interhall championship. In 1919, a preseason article for the interhall season mentioned that an interhall championship had been left undecided because of the "interference of military duties".

Walsh Hall
Walsh Hall was the 1918 interhall football champions. They compiled a 1–0 record, defeating Badin Hall 12 to 0 in the only interhall football contest played during the war-torn 1918 season.

Preps
The preparatory football team was coached by Mr. O'Connor. The preparatory department may no longer have been housed in Carroll Hall.

Interhall season
A schedule of interhall contests for the 1919 season was released under the direction of Gus Dorais. He decided that the season would start on October 12, with two games each Sunday until the interhall title was determined.

Badin Hall
The Badin team was the first to engage in preliminary practices for the 1919 interhall season. They were coached by Joe Silk.

Brownson Hall
Brownson hall was originally coached by Jake Kline, assisted by Mr. Donahue , and captained by Robin Brady. For their game against Michigan City High School the Brownsonites were coached by Mr. Sanders. For the 1919 season, the Brownsonites went under the nickname of "preps". This is not to be confused with the team of preparatory (high school) students that was represented by Old Carroll hall. When the preps played against off-campus opponents, they were known as the N. D., or Notre Dame Preps. This leads to speculation that while Brownson may have housed this "prep" team, they may not have been a representative hall team, and instead served as something similar to the "Ex-Carrollites" that occupied Brownson in prior seasons.

Corby Hall
Corby hall was the 1919 interhall football champions, defeating Walsh hall 12–6 in the championship game at Cartier Field. They were coached by Joe O'Hara, and sponsored by Father Haggerty. The Corbyites were nicknamed the Flying Dutchmen. In their game against Penn College, Corby became the first hall team to play a football game in the state of Iowa. Including their off-campus contests, Corby compiled a 5–1–1 record.

Day Students
A team of University day students was formed for the purpose of participating in the 1919 interhall season.

Sorin Hall
Sorin hall was coached by Hunk Anderson, who became head coach of the varsity in 1931 after the death of Knute Rockne in a plane crash.

Walsh Hall
The Walshites of 1919 were coached by Willie Coughlin and Grover Malone.

Carroll Hall
The preps of Carroll hall were undefeated during the 1919 season, with a record of at least 2–0 and probably more, considering the confusion surrounding the prep teams in this season.

All-Interhall
The Scholastic published a two-team selection, although it was published a week after the Football Review. The selections were chosen by the interhall coaches during two meetings. a note was made that every player received at least four of five votes, and most were unanimous.

Interhall season
The number of participants in the interhall league rose to seven with the additions of the Notre Dame Day Students (Off-Campus), and Carroll hall, the former home of the University's junior department. An interhall schedule, along with preseason speculation, was released by the Scholastic on September 25, with the season set to begin on October 2.

Of the twenty-one game schedule during the season, only ten were regulation football games, with an additional four forfeits and seven cancellations. The Scholastic Football Review attributed the cancellations and forfeits on bad weather, an over-interest in watching varsity football games, and especially too many games against opponents off of the University campus.

In the 1920 Season Review, a writer on the interhall section of the review proclaimed, "Interhall football came up for the season of 1920 like Jack Dempsey at Toledo and went down like Charlie Chaplin under a barrage of custard pies."

Badin Hall
The Badinites were coached by Mr. Seyfrit.

Brownson Hall
Brownson hall was the 1920 interhall football champion. They were coached by Cy Sanders.

Carroll Hall
The Carrollites were captained by Dick DeCorps,, and coached by Mr. Conley.

Corby Hall
Corby hall was the runner-up in the interhall race. They were coached by Eddie Anderson, Roger Kiley, Flynn, and Lieb.

Off-Campus team
The 1920 Off-Campus team, also known as the day dogs, day students, or city residents, played their inaugural season five years after their introduction to other interhall athletics. They were coached by Father Cunningham and captained by Earl Francis Walsh.

Sorin Hall
Sorin hall was captained by Mr. Cleary, and coached by Mr. Coughlin and Brandy.

All-Interhall
In contrast to the disorganized and distraught interhall football league in 1920, the all-hall team included an unprecedented thirty-three selections across three distinct teams from all seven interhall organizations.

The Scholastic Football Review
The Scholastic published a three-team selection for the 1920 season in their annual Football Review.

Season Review
A new publication, known as the "Season Review", published a single team selection, although it was an exact copy of the first team chosen by the Scholastic.

Interhall season
The entirety of the 1921 season was outlined in an edition of the South Bend Tribune on November 16, 1921. It reported that with a 5–0 record, Brownson Hall had won the 1921 interhall football championship. Six other teams competed in the football season, those being Corby (3–1–2), Sorin (2–2), Carroll (1–1–3), Walsh (1–1–2), the Off-Campus team (1–3), and Badin (0–4–1). It was noted that the season was not technically complete, with two opponents still remaining on Brownson's schedule, but that they would have no effect on the outcome of the championship and were unlikely to be played off.

Brownson Hall
Brownson hall was the 1921 interhall football champion. They compiled a 6–0–1 record overall, were 6–0 in interhall play, and outscored their opponents by a total of 60 to 10. They were coached by varsity captain and future College Football Hall of Fame inductee, Eddie Anderson, and were captained by Jimmy Burns.

Corby Hall
The Corby hall team, runner-up to the 1921 interhall champion with a 3–1–2 record, were captained by Mr. Jimmy James.

Sorin Hall
The Sorinites were captained by Mr. Ashe.

Scholastic
The Scholastic published a unique single-team selection in their twelfth issue, with four players tied for the position of fullback.

Season Review
The Season Review, a separate publication from the Scholastic's own Football Review, published a similar all-Interhall team that only included Mr. Barry as the selection for fullback. Honorable mentions were likewise omitted.

Interhall season
Freshman hall increased the total of teams in the interhall series to eight. Divisions were introduced for the first time in interhall history. The eight halls were divided into two groups, with group one composing Brownson. Carroll, Corby, and Sorin, while group two was made up of Badin, Freshman, Off-Campus, and Walsh. At the end of the regular interhall season a series of two semi-finals were held for the top two teams in each division, with the winners facing off in the interhall championship game on November 26.

Badin Hall
Badin hall was the 1922 interhall football champions. They received a ten-inch silver loving cup known as the Bill Roach Trophy to adorn in their recreation room. It was donated by Bill Roach, a Notre Dame Barber. They were captained by Mr. Mouch,, and later Mr. Haeker, and coached by Father O'Donnell.

Off-Campus team
The Off-Campus team of 1922, known as the Day Dodgers, were captained by Mr. Penrod.

Walsh Hall
The Walshites were captained by Mr. DeGurse.

All-Interhall
The Scholastic published a single-team selection in their annual Football Review.

Interhall season
The interhall season of 1923 was originally composed of nine teams, and was overseen by Carroll Hall rector and director of the Interhall Athletic Board, Father Devers. After forfeiting their games in the first series, Corby and Sorin halls resigned from the league in mid-October. During the season, a win by forfeit was not added to the victor's interhall record, but a loss by forfeit was considered a loss for that team. A new team, from the recently established wooden structure that housed university sophomores, accordingly called Sophomore hall, entered the series for their very first season. Campus divisions probably existed at some point in 1923, with Badin mentioned as the winner of the west campus, but it is not clear which teams were members of either division. At the end of the regular season, Brownson was guaranteed a spot in the championship game after defeating the Off-Campus team in the east campus semi-final, while Badin and Sophomore were to play their west campus semi-final game to decide which team would meet them. However, after tying 0 to 0, the athletic board decided they could not choose which team would be allowed to compete in the final game, and so they decided to cancel the championship and give away the champions loving cup in a random hat draw between the three co-champions. The cup was won by Badin hall, but the title of interhall officially left unawarded for the 1923 season. This was much to the chagrin of the Brownsonites, who believed they had the right to a championship game after their victory over the Off-Campus aggregation.

Badin Hall
Badin was one of three teams to finish as 1923 interhall football champions. They hold the distinction of receiving the silver loving cup that was designated as the interhall championship award for the 1923 season. They won this cup after winning from a random draw between them and the two other co-champions, Brownson and Sophomore halls. The championship itself was not awarded because of the three way tie. The Badinites were coached by William Maher and Joseph Bergman, and was captained by Walter Haecker.

Brownson Hall
According to one source, Brownson Hall compiled an 8–2 record for the 1923 season, although based on their known games this must be false. They were co-interhall football champions of 1923 along with Badin and Sophomore halls. The Brownsonites were coached by Mr. Barber and captained by Mr. Mulhern.

Off-Campus
The Day Dogs were coached by Father Hugh O'Donnell and Tom Reardon. They compiled a 3–1 record in the interhall league, going down in defeat to co-champion Brownson hall in the east campus semi-finals.

Sophomore Hall
The Sophomores were co-interhall champions of 1923, sharing the title with Badin and Brownson because of their tie with the Badinites in the west campus semi-finals.

Walsh Hall
Walsh hall was captained by Mr. Stanhope.

All-Interhall
The 1923 all-interhall team was probably chosen by a group of sportswriters for the Notre Dame Daily, a short-lived university publication that ran from 1923 to 1924.

Interhall season
Nine teams were represented in the 1924 interhall football season. In mid-October the S. A. C. introduced a new championship trophy to be presented to the winner of the 1924 interhall league. However, to keep the trophy permanently, the hall teams would have to win the championship three times, starting with the 1924 season. By late October, the interhall league had been split into two divisions, the east and west campuses. The west campus teams were Badin, Corby, the Day Dogs (Off-Campus team), Sorin, and Walsh, and played on a four game schedule for each team. The east campus had a three game schedule for their teams, which were Freshman, Sophomore, Brownson, and Carroll. The team with the best record in either division would face off against each other on November 16 in the Interhall championship. The last official standings appeared in the third edition of the 1924 Scholastic on October 14th, and so any hypothetical contests that likely occurred, but have no known score or game outcome, must have occurred after this date. Walsh hall won the west campus section on October 26 against Sorin Hall, while the Sophomore Hall team shut out Brownson Hall to take the east campus title. In the championship on November 16, the two halls tied 0–0. While the championship was disputed, Walsh hall initially claimed the SAC trophy because of their superior record. However, after the athletic board agreed to another game to be played on December 6, Walsh was unable to participate due to injuries, and Sophomore hall was given the title of interhall champion and the SAC trophy.

Brownson Hall
A generic team by the name of "Notre Dame Hall" was set to face off against the American Legion football team of Kokomo, and was reported to have a record of 2–0 prior to the contest, with one of the contests being a 13–6 win over the Goshen Elks. This was likely the Brownson team, as an October edition of the Scholastic noted that they defeated the Goshen Elks as well. Counting the unknown win at the beginning of the season, Brownson Hall compiled a 3–1–2 record overall.

Freshman Hall
The Freshman hall team played in the east campus section of the 1924 interhall football season. They finished with a 1–0–2 record in league play, and placed 2nd in their campus section. There was some confusion as to the claimant of certain games played under the generic name "Notre Dame Hall". Some of these contests are credited to the freshman hall team but could be a wholly separate team (similar to what a Notre Dame all-star team would look like for the residence halls) or a different hall like Brownson. One final theory, supported by an article in the Indianapolis Star is that the Notre Dame hall team is a distinct entity, but was recruited primarily from freshmen students. Some sources credit the victory over the Lafontaine team to the Varsity freshman team, although there is no hard evidence to support this conclusion. The hall compiled an overall record of 3–3–2.

Sophomore Hall
Sophomore Hall competed in the east campus section of the 1924 interhall football season and were the 1924 interhall football champions. They won their section with a 2–0–1 record and faced Walsh Hall in the interhall championship, where they tied 0–0. Although a rematch was scheduled on December 6, Walsh hall was unable to compete due to injuries, allowing the Sophomores a win by forfeit. They compiled an overall record of 2–1–2.

Walsh Hall
Walsh hall compiled a 4–0 record in the west campus section of the league and tied Sophomore hall 0–0 in the first championship game. Although they led the league in win percentage, the Walshites were unable to participate in the championship rematch on December 6 because of injuries, and were forced to forfeit the interhall title and trophy to the Sophomores. Mr. Stanhope captained the team (at least for their trip to Fort Wayne to play the Tanks, a semi-professional team with a 7–1 record ). Walsh hall finished the 1924 season with an overall record of 5–1–1.

All-Interhall
The 1924 all-interhall team was chosen by the hall rectors and constituted a single team. Quarterback Cody of Badin was a unanimous choice, and would later play halfback on the varsity in 1925. Red Smith also made the varsity team and became a two-year starter. John Hogan may have played varsity right tackle in 1926.

Interhall season
The 1925 interhall season saw the addition of Howard hall to the league, raising the membership to ten teams. The interhall divisions were rearranged, with Freshman, Carroll, Brownson, Howard, and the Off-Campus team forming the first group, while Sophomore, Corby, Sorin, Walsh and Badin occupied the other. All games were scheduled for Sunday at 2:30 pm, beginning on October 4 and ending with the interhall championship game on November 8. There are varying reports as to how Badin won the 1925 interhall football championship. The Scholastic reported that Badin shutout Sorin for the western league title and then defeated Freshman hall 7 to 3 to win the interhall championship, while the University yearbook, The Dome, claimed that Badin defeated Corby in a two-game series at the end of the season to clinch the title. The scholastic is likely the most accurate source, although the games described by the Dome likely occurred as well.

Brownson Hall
The Brownsonites were coached by Ed Crowe and Edmund Bresnahan.

Badin Hall
The Badinites of 1925 were interhall football champions. They were coached by Father Boland and assistant Pat Cohen and compiled a 4–1 record.

Freshman Hall
The freshmen were coached by Mr. Lyon.

Off-Campus
The Day Dogs were coached by Father Mooney.

Sophomore Hall
The sophomores, reigning champions of the 1924 interhall football season, were coached by Joe Boland and Vincent Nally, and later Reverend William Galligan. They were captained by Mr. Purcell.

Sorin Hall
The Sorinites were coached by Father William Carey.

Walsh hall
Walsh hall was coached by Father Haggerty.

Interhall football
Two new teams, from Lyons and Morrissey halls, entered the interhall football league for their inaugural seasons in 1926, raising the total number of participants to twelve. The schedule of games was released on October 8, and was the most ambitious of any former plans in terms of games played per day (six) and total games (thirty, not including any championship games). The schedule also included a list of football fields, the Minims, Brownson, and the "varsity field", which was referring to Cartier field. The interhall divisions were the Senior league (Badin, Corby, Lyons, Morrissey, Sophomore, Sorin) and Junior league (Brownson, Carroll, Freshman, Howard, Off-Campus, Walsh). Officially, no championship was won or claimed by any of the halls for the first time since 1918, but the best teams based on winning percentage were Sophomore and Badin halls of the senior league, which both finished with 4–0 records. The only reason given for no championship was the report of an important injured player around the time of the games. The Dome was most likely referring to John Eagan, although his accident occurred weeks before the regular season was even over. Like previous years, many of the game outcomes during the season are unknown, and even the list of records provided by the University yearbook are flawed as many records can be directly disproven by the game outcomes that are available, plus the numbers of wins and losses listed in the records do not match. The only records from the schedule below that do not match the end-of-season records reported in The Dome are Corby, which had a reported record 1–3 but garnered a 2–2 record based on a collection of sources, and Carroll, which had the same disparity between their traceable record and the one they were given at the end of the interhall season.

Badin Hall
In their 30th season, Badin compiled a 4–0 record and were 1926 interhall football co-champions, sharing the honor with Sophomore who finished with the same record and Freshman who was the divisional champion of the west campus.

Brownson Hall
In their 34th season, Brownson hall compiled a 2–2 record.

Freshman Hall
In their 5th season, Freshman compiled a 2–1 record, and were 1926 interhall football co-champions, sharing the honor with Badin and Sophomore who shared identical undefeated records in the eastern division. They were captained by Mark McCabe, and coached by Father Mooney.

Lyons Hall
In their inaugural season, Lyons compiled a 1–3 record. They were captained by Mr. Denchfield.

The injury of John Eagan
During a game between Lyons and Morrissey halls, a Lyons halfback named John Eagan suffered a severe compound fracture to his left leg that left the bone exposed and was held in St. Joseph's Hospital for weeks after the game. He accumulated expensive medical bills during his stay, and the University would not pay them off due to their policy of only insuring players in varsity games. Two weeks later, the annual Notre Dame-Army game was played at West Point. Friends of Mr. Eagan traveled to the game, and after Notre Dame shut out the crowd rushed the field, they managed to rip off a large piece of the Army goalpost. Upon returning to the University, they sold splinters of the chunk as souvenirs of the game to contribute to what they called the “Eagan fund”. The strategy was a resounding success, and the friends were able to pay off all of John Eagan's hospital bills with money left to spare. This act of kindness allowed him to return to the University in December of that year. Newspapers across the country published the story and dubbed it "the true Notre Dame spirit".

Morrissey Hall
In their inaugural season, Morrissey compiled a 1–3 record.

Sophomore Hall
In their 4th season, Sophomore compiled a 4–0 record and were unofficially the 1926 interhall football co-champions, sharing the honor with Badin who finished with the same record and Freshman who finished as the best team in the west campus. They were captained by Mr. Curry.

Walsh Hall
In their 18th season, Walsh compiled a 2–2 record. They were coached by Mr. McLaughin.

Interhall football
The 1927 season saw a revitalization and reorganization of the faltering interhall league of the past few years. Under the leadership of Father E. Mooney, new practices were instituted to raise attendance, player safety, and overall interest in the football league. The most crucial of these was the new role placed on varsity football players to not only coach the hall teams, but act as referees and other officiators during these interhall contests. The new management reduced the number of serious injuries during the season, and managed to redirect people from watching on the sidelines to watching in the stands, generating more overall attendance to each game. The increased attendance made the league seem more important to the interhall players, and nearly all 30 games that were scheduled at the beginning of the season were played. A note was made in the Scholastic that even Brownson and Carroll, who didn't win at all in 1927, showed up for every game.

Badin Hall
In their thirty-first season, Badin hall compiled a 2–3 interhall record. They were coached Ray Mock.

Brownson Hall
In their thirty-fifth season, Brownson hall compiled a 0–3–2 interhall record. They were coached by Joe Abbot and Bob Newfold.

Carroll Hall
In their eighth season, old Carroll hall compiled a 0–3–2 interhall record. They were coached by Arthur Evans and George Ulrich.

Corby Hall
In their twenty-fourth season, Corby hall compiled a 3–2 interhall record. They were coached by Dave Krembs.

Freshman Hall
In their sixth season, Freshman hall compiled a 6–0 interhall record, and were the 1927 interhall football champions. They were coached by John "Sticks" Rielly.

Howard Hall
In their third season, Howard hall compiled a 3–1–1 interhall record. They were coached by Leo Schrall.

Lyons Hall
In their second season, Lyons hall compiled a 4–1–1 interhall record. They were coached by C. A. Costello.

Morrissey Hall
In their second season, Morrissey hall compiled a 2–2–1 interhall record. They were coached by F. J. Culhane.

Off-Campus team
In their eighth season, the Off-Campus team compiled a 3–1–1 interhall record. They were coached by Milton Wagner.

Physical Education team
To supplement the loss of Sorin hall in the interhall league, a new team was founded from the second and third varsity freshman strings. In their inaugural season, the Physical Education team compiled a 0–3–1 interhall record. They were sponsored by Father E. Vincent Mooney, who was also respobnsible for assigning varsity football players to coaching roles on the interhall teams and the season schedule of said teams.

Sophomore Hall
In their fifth season, Sophomore hall compiled a 2–2–1 interhall record. They were coached by L. Moxie.

Sorin Hall
The Sorinites were coached by John (Ike) Voedisch, a varsity end, and Joe Morrissey, the varsity quarterback in 1927. However, like the previous season, Sorin forfeited their interhall games and never brought a team to the field, being replaced by the physical education team instead.

Walsh Hall
In their nineteenth season, Walsh hall compiled a 2–3 interhall record. They were coached by J. R. McGrath and M. J. O'Phalen.

Interhall football
Wanting to repeat the resounding successes of the 1927 season, Father E. Vincent Mooney served as administrator of the interhall football league for their 1928 season. The varsity football players of the Physical Education and Boy Guidance departments coached, while the varsity reserves acted as officiators. Former All-Interhall players, a few high school coaches, and an End from the Southwestern conference were also part of the coaching staff for the various teams. The contests on September 30 were all considered practice games and did count against or for any of the teams, all in an effort to allow various coaches to test their new players. To minimize the chance that the practice game would be replayed by the same teams later in the season, each Division I team was matched up against a Division II team. According to the 1928 Football Review, Division I was made up entirely of halls that housed freshman, while Division II was composed of the upperclassmen halls.

Badin Hall
In their thirty-second season, Badin hall compiled a 1–2 record in the interhall league. They were coached by B. A. Lange, Bill McCleary, and Phil Coyle.

Brownson Hall
In their thirty-sixth season, Brownson hall compiled a 0–4–1 record in the interhall league, and a 0–5–1 record overall. They were coached by Marshall Keiser, Charley Vanoncini, and Frank Mueller.

Carroll Hall
In their ninth season, Carroll hall compiled a 2–2–1 record in the interhall league. They were coached by Frank Crowe, Gene Moriarity, and Jerry Higgins.

Corby Hall
In their twenty-fifth season, Corby hall compiled a 2–2 record in the interhall league, and a 2–3 record overall. They were coached by John Clinton and Jerry Halloran, and captained by Mr. Walsh.

Freshman Hall
In their seventh season, Freshman hall compiled a 3–1–2 record in the interhall league, and a 3–2–2 record overall. They were coached by James Curry, Tom Brown, and Bill Reaume.

Howard Hall
In their fourth season, Howard hall compiled a 4–1–3 record in the interhall league, and a 4–2–3 record overall. They were coached by Art Lynch, C. G. Limandt, and L. V. Ramer. Due to their two victories and a tie against the other three frosh hall, Brownson, Carroll, and Freshman, Howard hall was awarded the "Mythical Freshman Championship" of the hall football teams.

Lyons Hall
In their third season, Lyons hall compiled a 6–0 record in the interhall league, and a 7–0 record overall. They won the titles of Division II champion with a win over Sophomore hall and then became the 1928 interhall football champions' with a victory over Howard hall. They were coached by Joe Jachym, and G. Fitzgerald, and captained by Mr. Hewson.

Morrissey Hall
In their third season, Morrissey hall compiled a 0–4 record in the interhall league, and a 0–5 record overall. They were coached by John Kelleher and Ed. McGlinchey.

Off-Campus team
In their ninth season, the off-Campus team compiled a 3–2 record in the interhall league. They were coached by Leo Schrall and Bus Griffin.

Off-Campus B team
In their inaugural season, the off-Campus B team compiled a 0–3 record in the interhall league. They were coached by W. T. Byrne and L. Brennell.

Sophomore Hall
In their sixth season, Sophomore hall compiled a 4–1 record in the interhall league, and a 5–1 record overall. They were coached by Joe Gavin, Jim Delly and Pete Narconi, and were captained by Mr. Pappas.

Walsh Hall
In their twentieth season, Walsh hall compiled a 1–4 record in the interhall league. They were coached by Bob Walsh, K. W. Byrne and J. W. Buckley.

1929
For the 1929 season, Father Mooney was replaced in favor of an interhall athletics board composed of the Rectors of all twelve halls participatinmg in the league, all under the supervision of coach George Keogan. With the formal dissolution of the minims department at the end of the previous scholastic year, St. Edward's Hall was admitted to play in interhall competition for the first time since the Ex-minim-Minim games before World War I. Badin and Sorin halls did not participate in the campus football season, so the league did not have to deviant from its model of two leagues and six teams each in a round-robin tournament that had been employed in 1926.

Badin Hall
Badin was originally scheduled to participate in the interhall season but forfeited all of their four contests. If the Badinites had played, they would have been led by the holder of the second highest winning-percentage of any major college football coach, Frank Leahy, who at the time was a tackle on the 1929 football team.

Brownson Hall
In their thirty-seventh season, Brownson hall compiled a 1–2–1 record in the interhall league, and a 1–3–1 record overall. They were coached by varsity center and future consensus all-American Tommy Yarr. In the annual "championship of the Main Building", Brownon handily defeated Carroll 14 to 0 to take the title.

Carroll Hall
In their tenth season, Carroll hall compiled a 0–4 interhall record. They were coached by varsity halfback Clarence Kaplan.

Corby Hall
In their twenty-sixth season, Corby hall compiled a 2–1–1 interhall record. They were coached by Mr. O'Brien.

Freshman Hall
In their eighth season, Freshman hall compiled a 2–1–1 record in the interhall league, and a 3–1–1 record overall. They were coached by all-American halfback Marty Brill. Due to their two victories and a tie over the other three frosh halls at the time, Brownson, Carroll, and Howard, Freshman was awarded the "Mythical Freshman Championship" of the hall football teams.

Howard Hall
In their fifth season, Howard hall compiled a 1–1–2 record in the interhall league, and a 3–1–2 record overall. They were coached by all-American quarterback and future CFHOF inductee, Frank Carideo.

Lyons Hall
In their fourth season, Lyons hall compiled a 1–3–1 interhall record. They were coached by varsity end and future captain of the 1930 national championship team, Tom Conley.

Morrissey Hall
In their fourth season, Morrissey hall compiled a 4–0 known interhall record, although the Dome recognized them with a 3–1–1 record while the Football Review lists them as having 3–1 record. They were coached by varsity end Jim Griffin.

Off-Campus team
In their tenth season, the Off-Campus team compiled a 4–1–2 record in the interhall league, a 4–2–2 record overall, and were the 1929 interhall football champions. Until the 1929 season the day dogs had held the modern record for most seasons in the interhall football league without a championship, playing in nine consecutive seasons since their introduction to the league in 1920 without even an appearance in the championship game (Brownson also played their first nine seasons without a championship from 1890 to 1899, but this was before the era of organized interhall oversight). The Off-Campus students accredited this to a lack of interest and space to practice during prior seasons. They were coached by varsity guard Jim Lyons and captained by Mr. Walsh.

Sophomore Hall
In their seventh season, Sophomore hall compiled a 3–1–2 record in the interhall league, and a 4–1–2 record overall. They were coached by varsity halfback Michael Koken and captained by Mr. Conti.

St. Edward's Hall
In their inaugural season, St. Edward's hall compiled a 0–3–1 interhall record. They were coached by varsity end Frank Kosky.

Walsh Hall
In their twenty-second season, Walsh hall compiled a 2–1–1 interhall record. They were coached by all-American fullback "Jumping Joe" Savoldi, who would go on to successful careers in the NFL, as a professional wrestling champion, and an American spy in World War II.

The Scholastic
All-Interhall selections were published in the Scholastic on November 22, 1929. It included three teams.

The Football Review
The annual Football Review selected two interhall teams.

Interhall season
The 1930 interhall football season for each team was set at four contests, with a possible fifth for tiebreakers and a sixth if the select team qualified for the interhall championship, which was played at the recently established Notre Dame Stadium. The championship game was the first non-varsity contest to take place inside the new stadium. During the regular season, the playing fields were designated as Brownson Field, Cartier No. 1 (Old Cartier Field), Cartier No. 2 (varsity practice field), and the Minims field. Badin exited the interhall league after week one just as it had done the previous year, and was replaced by the Off-Campus B team, which itself was forced to forfeit some games due to a lack of players.

Badin Hall
Badin hall was coached by Leahy, possibly Frank Leahy, celebrated Notre Dame coach and Hall of Famer. The team forfeited one game to Lyons hall before dropping out the interhall season all together. The Off-Campus reserves replaced the hall team in the league and took up their football schedule.

Brownson Hall
Brownson hall competed in group two and compiled a 1–4 interhall record under head coach "Jumping Joe" Savoldi, a varsity fullback and future professional wrestler.

Carroll Hall
Carroll hall competed in group 2 and compiled 0–5 interhall record under head coach Tommy Yarr, a varsity center and future consensus all-American.

Corby Hall
Corby hall competed in group one and compiled a 2–0–3 interhall record under head coach Romanin.

Freshman Hall
Freshman hall competed in group two and compiled a 3–2 interhall record under coach Martin Brill, varsity right halfback.

Howard Hall
Howard hall competed in group two and compiled a 4–1–1 interhall record under coach O'Brien.

Lyons Hall
Lyons hall was the runners-up to the 1930 interhall football champion. They won group one with a 4–0–2 interhall record, under coach Frank Cardeo, all-american varsity quarterback and future member of the CFBHOF, and then lost to Walsh hall in the interhall championship game to finish 4–1–2.

Morrissey Hall
Morrissey hall competed in group one and compiled a 1–4–1 interhall record under coach Albert Capter, varsity fullback.

Off-Campus team
Two off-Campus teams were represented in the 1930 interhall football season.

Off-Campus first team
The Off-Campus first team competed in group two and compiled a 2–3 interhall record under coach Butorac.

Off-Campus second team
The Off-Campus B team competed in group one and compiled a 1–4 record.

Sophomore Hall
Sophomore hall competed in group one and compiled a 2–2–1 interhall record under coach Clarence Kaplan, varsity right halfback.

St. Edwards Hall
St. Edward's hall competed in group one and compiled a 3–1–2 interhall record under coach Edwin Kosky, varsity left end.

Walsh Hall
Walsh hall was the 1930 interhall football champion. They won group one with a 5–0–1 interhall record under coach Tom Conley, varsity football captain and right end. They then defeated Lyons hall in the championship game at Notre Dame Stadium to finish 6–0–1, having shut out all seven of their opponents.

Alumni
The charity game against the New York Giants professional football team on December 14 featured the infamous Notre Dame Four Horsemen of 1924. Adam Walsh, captain of the championship Notre Dame football team of 1924, and current line coach at Yale, agreed to coach the alumni for their game against the professional team. The inclusion of the Notre Dame all-star team's defeat of the West-South all-star team is debatable, given that one of the fourteen players who played on the Notre Dame team was from Purdue.

Interhall season
The introduction of Alumni and Dillon halls to the interhall league increased the total of participating residences at Notre Dame to an all-time high of fourteen. Due to this increase, the regular season rose from five to six games. John Fredericks, a former varsity center, took control of interhall athletics for the season and arranged the schedule, assigned equipment, and settled disputes. Over 200 students were dressed and over 300 competed in the football season.

On October 28, John Fredricks met with over a 150 interhall players and their coaches to announce that the University was rescinding their policy of not ensuring medical costs of student-athletes in intramural athletics. It is unclear if this policy had been removed years before, or for how long the new policy would last.

Due to the consistency of tie games during the season, an article in the Scholastic advocated to lengthen the duration of time per quarter in interhall football from eight minutes to a time closer to the varsity's fifteen minutes.

Walsh hall won the most lopsided game in interhall history at the time when they defeated Freshman hall 39 to 0 on Brownson field. This broke the previous record, also set by Walsh hall, when they defeated Corby 38 to 0 during the 1917 season. It was the sixth interhall game where one team scored 30+ points, and the second-most total points scored during an interhall contest after another Walsh game in which they defeated Brownson 26–14 in 1913.

Alumni Hall
In their inaugural season, Alumni hall competed in group two of the interhall league, compiled a 2–0–4 interhall record.

Walsh Hall
In their twenty-third season, Walsh hall competed in group two of the interhall league, compiled a 4–1–2 interhall record. They were coached by Mr. Napolitano, and captained by Benjamin Mikes.

The Scholastic/Football Review
The Scholastic, which controlled the Football Review at the time, published a two team all-interhall selection. It was decided by a combination of picks from the interhall coaches, officiating crews, and interhall administrator John Fredricks, which in the past had been done by these groups individually.

Interhall season
Tommy Yarr, a consensus All-American and assistant coach for the varsity team, took control of the interhall league for the 1932 season. The turnout for practice across the league was reported as the largest in the history of interhall football. Multiple teams dropped out of league due to a lack of interest or number of available players, including the off-campus team before week one, and the Carroll hall aggregation in week three. Tom Yarr ruled that the latter two would be counted as forfeit wins to all teams that they were originally scheduled to play them. Yarr also reversed the outcome of the Badin-Morrissey contest after Morrissey filed a complaint that the Badinites were using two players that practiced with the varsity team. A point system was also introduced this season to replace the use of percentages to determine who would appear in the interhall championship game, with two points for victories, one for ties, and zero for losses. The schedule of games during the season was erratic due to all the drop-outs and forfeit games. During the last week of play all other scheduled interhall football games were cancelled as the teams no longer had a chance to participate in the championship. Another reason for the loss in commitment from interhall players was their fear of costly injuries that at this point in their lives could not be afforded. An editorial at the end of the season speculated if it was time to abolish the interhall league altogether.

Alumni Hall
In their second season, Alumni hall competed in Group two of the interhall league, compiled a 6–0 interhall record, and a 7–0 record overall.

Off-campus team
Due to the low number of students that were currently living off the campus, the off-campus team did not have enough players to put a team in the field and decided to forgo their 1932 season after cancelling their opening week contest with Brownson hall.

St. Edward's Hall
In their fourth season, St. Edward's hall competed in Group one of the interhall league, and compiled a 2–1–1 interhall record. They were coached by Halleran, Freehill, and Cronan, and captained by Mr. Andrews.

Interhall football
The 1933 interhall football season was controlled by freshmen coach Jake Kline. A full schedule was released on October 6, and the season officially began two days later. Numerous halls did not field football teams before and during the season, including the off-campus team and Sorin before the season began, St. Edward's briefly after the schedule was finalized, and Carroll briefly after week two.

They were coached by Novak and junior coach Maxwell.

Morrissey Hall
In their eighth season, Morrissey hall competed in group one of the interhall league, and compiled a 2–2 interhall record. They were coached by Blaine, and junior coaches Palkovic and Gioe.

1934
The Off-Campus team and Sorin hall, which had not fielded an interhall football team since the 1930 and 1925 seasons respectively, joined the interhall league for the 1934 season. However, Badin and Walsh exited the league before the season began, lowering the total teams to twelve.

Alumni Hall
In their fourth season, Alumni hall competed in group one of the interhall league, and compiled a 2–1–1? interhall record. They were coached by Phillip Walker.

In their sixth season, St. Edward's hall competed in group one of the interhall league, and compiled a 0–2–2? interhall record. They were coached by Charles Hughes.

Walsh Hall
Walsh resigned before the season began. They were supposed to have been coached by Frank Wade.

The Scholastic
The Scholastic did not publish an all-interhall selection, but instead opted to choose all-interhall group elevens. The coaches of the respective groups chose the team that represented their division. The selections made by the group II coaches were nearly unanimous, while group I generated more honorable mentions.

1935
Mr. Scannell, head of the department of Physical Education at Notre Dame, administrated over the interhall football league for the 1935 season.

In the first week of play, St. Edward's broke the record for most lopsided interhall football contest when they defeated Dillon hall 44 to 0. It was the first game that a single interhall team eclipsed 40 points.

The interhall football season, including the last week of games and the championship, were cancelled by head coach Elmer Layden after the fatal injury suffered by St. Edward's player Richard (Dick) Sullivan in a game against Freshman on November 17. Weeks later, a series of coin flips were administered to decide who would be interhall champion and receive the Joseph Sullivan interhall trophy and individual awards. St. Edward's was the clear winner of group II while there was a three-way tie in group I. Corby hall won the group I coin flips and then defeated St. Edward's in another coin flip to be crowned interhall champions. However, since St. Edward's hall held the best record in the league they were granted the interhall trophy and the individual awards that went with it.

Joseph Sullivan interhall trophy
Joseph G. Sullivan, elected captain of 1935 Notre Dame Varsity football team, died in March of 1935. In response to his death, the Notre Dame Club of New York donated a bronze plaque to the University that was named the "Joseph George Sullivan Interhall Football Championship Trophy", with the intention that it would be given to the annual interhall football champion. It is unclear if Joseph Sullivan was related to Richard Sullivan, who died months later of injuries sustained in an interhall football game.

Alumni Hall
In their fifth season, Alumni hall competed in group one of the interhall league, and compiled a 0–2–3 interhall record. They were coached by Salerno.

Badin Hall
In their thirty-seventh season, Badin hall competed in group one of the interhall league, and compiled a 0–5 interhall record. They were coached by Hennessy.

Brownson Hall
In their forty-third season, Brownson hall competed in group two of the interhall league, and compiled a 3–3 interhall record. They were coached by Velcheck.

Carroll Hall
In their sixteenth season, Carroll hall competed in group two of the interhall league, and compiled a 2–2–1 interhall record. They were coached by Ed Crotty.

Corby Hall
In their fifteenth season, Corby hall competed in group one of the interhall league, and compiled a 4–1–1 interhall record. They were officially named 1935 interhall football champions after a series of coin flips, first to determine the group I champion and then to decide the champion. However, the Joseph Sullivan trophy and individual awards were not given to Corby and instead given to St. Edward's as they held they held the best record in the league and were already scheduled for the interhall championship while Corby had been tied with Howard and Walsh in group I. They were coached by H. Gallagher.

Dillon Hall
In their fifth season, Dillon hall competed in group two of the interhall league, and compiled a 3–2 interhall record. They were coached by Paul Smith.

Freshman Hall
In their fourteenth season, Freshman hall competed in group two of the interhall league, and compiled a 3–2 interhall record. They were coached by Moore.

Howard Hall
In their tenth season, Howard hall competed in group one of the interhall league, and compiled a 3–0–2 interhall record. They were one of the four teams that participated in the series of coin flips to decide the group I and overall interhall champions. They were coached by Palkovic.

Lyons Hall
In their tenth season, Lyons hall competed in group one of the interhall league, and compiled a 1–1–3 interhall record. They were coached by Kirk.

Morrissey Hall
Morrissey forfeited each of their five games during the 1935 season. They were supposed to have been coached by Schulz.

Off-Campus team
In their fourteenth season, the Off-Campus team competed in group two of the interhall league, and compiled a 3–2–1 interhall record. They were coached by Hauser.

Sorin Hall
In their thirtieth season, Sorin hall competed in group one of the interhall league, and compiled a 1–2–2 interhall record. They were coached by Wentworth, while Father Farley played an important role on the team as the current hall rector.

St. Edward's Hall
In their seventh season, St. Edward's hall competed in group two of the interhall league, and compiled a 5–0 interhall record. They easily clinched the group I championship and were the first team to be accepted to the interhall championship. However, after the grave injury of Dick Sullivan the season was cancelled and a series of coin flips were issued to decided the interhall football champions instead. Unfortunately for St. Edward's, Corby defeated them in the coin toss and was given the distinction of interhall champions, although the Joseph Sullivan interhall trophy and the individual awards were all given to St. Edward's as they finished with the best record in the land and would have been unofficial champions if not for the coin flip. They were coached by Brovelli.

The Death of Richard J. Sullivan
On November 17, 1935, Richard (Dick) Sullivan, a 19-year old Sophomore from Poughkeepsie, New York, was playing on the St. Edward's hall team against Freshman when he suffered an injury which broke his neck. He died a week later, becoming the third student to die at Notre Dame as a result of an injury sustained in a game of football.

Walsh Hall
In their twenty-sixth season, Walsh hall competed in group one of the interhall league, and compiled a 2–0–3 interhall record. Walsh was one of the four teams that participated in the coin flips to decide the interhall championship. They were coached by McKenna.

All-Interhall
No know All-Interhall teams were published during the 1935 season, likely because of all the confusion when the league was shut down due to Dick Sullivan's grave injury.

Interhall tackle football
Elvin R. Handy, a member of the department of physical education, supervised interhall football during the 1936 season. The head of the physical education department imposed a new set of strict rules to govern interhall football after the death of Richard Sullivan during an interhall game the previous year. Some of these were that a team must have 22 players, and at least 18 ready to play on the field before each contest. Additionally, each player must undergo a physical examination between games and appear at practice three times a week.

The interhall season was shown very little interest just two days before it was scheduled to begin. By October 9th only one team, Off-Campus, had enough men to play, and only five uniforms had been issued. By the next week the opening had been delayed until October 18 and four teams had organized and gathered enough men to meet the new minimums, Howard, Off-Campus, Sorin, and Walsh. The season was eventually ready to begin on October 25 with six teams, the lowest membership in the league since 1919. Reasons for the disinterest vary, but the strongest accounts cite the new regulations and the emergence of interhall touch football, soccer, and speedball as the most influential factors.

After October 23, there were no mentions of games played or scheduled. This absence in coverage in any known University publications during the year indicates that the interhall football season was almost certainly cancelled due to a lack of available teams and overall interest. It was the first time no interhall football games had been played since the 1891/1892 season.

Brownson Hall
Brownson was supposed to have been coached by Galleta.

Cavanaugh Hall
Brownson was supposed to have been coached by Collins.

Freshman Hall
Brownson was supposed to have been coached by Strand.

Morrissey Hall
Brownson was supposed to have been coached by Conrad.

Off-Campus team
Brownson was supposed to have been coached by Jasinki.

St. Edward's Hall
Brownson was supposed to have been coached by Langton.

All-Interhall
As there were no known interhall football games during the 1936 season, no All-Interhall teams were selected.

Interhall touch football
Touch football (also known as flash-ball ), after years of informal games, was made an official interhall sport by John A. Scannell for the 1936 season. Rules included a twenty-five-yard penalty if a player "leaves their feet" when attempting to touch someone, a player was considered tackled when someone touches them with two hands, tackling was considered a twenty-five-yard penalty, and quarters were shortened from fifteen to ten minutes. However, after many delays, no mention was made of any scores or games of any kind, almost guaranteeing that the season had been cancelled.

Interhall touch football
Interhall touch was introduced again under John Scannell along with the continuation of interhall soccer, taking the place of interhall tackle football as the main intramural sports spectacle on campus. Some new rules were introduced to the touch league, including 20-yard first-downs, a standard of nine men per team on the field, and that any man would be eligible for a forward pass. Penalties were given for leaving the ground when recovering a fumbles or touching an opponent. After two weeks of pre-season practice, the touch football season began with a single game between Badin and Freshman halls, the rest being postponed or cancelled due to the snow, rain, and the weekly football cotillion. After the first week, Mr. Scannell decided to reorganize the format of the touch league from a divisional round-robin to a more traditional, elimination-style tournament. However, the tournament was postponed because of various student trips to Minneapolis and Chicago. "Touch-ball" as it was called, continued to sag as the first round was postponed another three times, first because of an influx of visitors to the University for the Notre Dame-Pitt game, and the next two weeks due to snowy weather. By December 10, all outdoor interhall activities had been officially cancelled, putting an end to any attempts to play football. The 1937 season ended with only a single regular season game being played, and even that may not have been considered a regulation game due to a shift in the league tournament.

Badin Hall
Badin, like any of the other halls, only fielded a touch-football team during the 1937 season. They participated in the only recorded regular-season game, and defeated the favored-Freshman hallers 6 to 2. Therefore, they have the best claim to be 1937 interhall touch football champions. The last time that only a single interhall football game had been played during a whole season was in 1918 during the University's involvement in the war effort. Coincidentally, Badin was one of the two teams that played in that singular game, losing 12–0 to Walsh hall.

Interhall touch football
Touch football continued to serve as the only interhall version of football during the 1938 season. It was colloquially known as the Pass-Football League. Many of the freshmen residence halls fielded two football teams during the season, distinguished as the golds or blues.

Zahm Hall
Zahm fielded two interhall football teams during the 1938 season, the blues and the golds. The golds finished with a 2–1 record, the combined blue and gold team defeated Cavanaugh in the semi-finals, and the Zahm blues compiled a 4–0 record and became the 1938 interhall touch football champions.

Interhall touch football
Touch football, as well as every other interhall sport during the fall season, were originally cancelled by the Student Activities Council in late September. A lack of equipment was cited as the leading reason for the cancellation.

Interclass football
Overdue equipment finally arrived at the University in late November, including 210 new uniforms and 150 helmets. This prompted the S.A.C. to devise a short schedule for an intramural fall football season. Instead of creating a tournament between the various residence halls, the committee decided to form an interclass football tournament, with a freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior team. An article that explained the re-introduction of intramural football confirmed that the last few seasons had been tumultuous because of injuries that occurred during the fateful 1935 season, likely in reference to the death of Richard Sullivan. Only men that were 150 pounds or less were permitted to participate in the interclass season, effectively barring any varsity members from adding unfair talent to the intramural season and allowing "lightweights" to get a chance to play football at Notre Dame. The league purposely mirrored the lightweight football teams that had sprung up in some eastern colleges, a type of distinction that would eventually become known as Sprint football. To avoid any confusion in the next season, the S. A. C. announced that interhall football would return in it's traditional format.

Interclass Freshmen
A team representing the freshmen class competed in a short inter-class lightweight football league during the 1939 season. Under coaches Joe DeFranco, Joe Thesing and Thad Harvey, the frosh compiled a 1–1–1 record and lost to the juniors in the interclass championship.

Sophomores
A team representing the sophomore class competed in a short inter-class lightweight football league during the 1939 season. Under coaches Wally Borer and Mike Corgan, the sophomores compiled a 0–1–1 record.

Juniors
A team representing the junior class competed in a short inter-class lightweight football league during the 1939 season. Under coach Frank "Boody" Albert, the juniors compiled a 2–0–1 record, defeating the freshmen to become 1939 interclass champions. The juniors were awarded twenty-five medals, twenty-four of which were bestowed upon the players and one for their coach.

Seniors
A team representing the senior class competed in a short inter-class lightweight football league during the 1939 season. Under coaches Alan Mooney and Bob Sullivan, the seniors compiled a 0–1–1 record.

Interhall football
Interhall tackle football was brought back to Notre Dame for the first time since the end of the 1935 season. Under the oversight of Elmer Layden, Father Doc Handy took principle control over the league and initially divided it into a lightweight (less than 150 pounds) and heavyweight (over 150 pounds) division before scrapping it to a shortage in available players. As an incentive to play, all participants were promised a grand banquet, and the chance to receive a medal if they were selected for the "all-tournament" team at the end of the season. Every game was to be played on one of the three Cartier fields, with the championship taking place at Notre Dame Stadium. A training table was also introduced for the interhallers. More than one source mentioned that St. Edward's was the defending interhall champion, which may have been in reference to the hall's undefeated record in 1935. The divisions among the two leagues were created based on the hall's location on campus, and not the class year of the residents. At the end of the season the Reverend J. Hugh O'Donnell Gold Trophy, inscribed with "University of Notre Dame Inter-Hall Football Championship 1940. St. Edward's and Dillon Co-Champions" was bestowed upon St. Edward's after winning a coin toss six weeks after the championship game against Dillon ended in a scoreless tie. Twenty members of each team were also gifted gold football charms that read "Inter-Hall 1940." Mr. O'Donnell, who was then University president, promised to purchase another trophy for the 1941 season.

After tying St. Edward's in Notre Dame Stadium, Dillon became 1940 interhall football co-champions. However, in a coin toss six weeks later the University president's golden trophy was won by St. Edward's, who had lost on a similar toss in 1935. They were coached by J. C. Brennan and Wally Bohrer.

Howard Hall
In their twelfth season, Howard hall competed in group two of the interhall league, and compiled a 0–5–1 interhall record. They were coached by Bill Timmel.

Lyons Hall
In their eleventh season, Lyons hall competed in group two of the interhall league, and compiled a 4–2 interhall record. They were coached by Lester Fahey.

St. Edward's Hall
In their seventh season, St. Edward's hall competed in group one of the interhall league, and compiled a 5–0–1 interhall record. They were the champions of league one and tied Dillon to become 1940 interhall football co-champions. A coin flip six weeks later decided who would keep the championship trophy and receive the individual gold charms, and St. Edward's won the toss. They were coached by Joe Rogalia, and captained by Bill Hartman.

Zahm Hall
In their inaugural season, Zahm hall competed in group one of the interhall league, and compiled a 2–3 interhall record. They were coached by Bill Fallon.

The Scholastic
The Scholastic published an unordered two-team selection, the first time the all-campus football team had been picked since the 1934 season. The best coaches from the interhall league were also selected.

Interhall football
To ensure the success of the 1941 season, father Hugh O'Donnell and interhall administer E. R. Handy made preparations for the league well before the season began. However, the United States' involvement in World War II began to have an effect on Notre Dame athletics. An R. O. T. C. team was created at the beginning of the season to participate in the various interhall sports, although they did not end up fielding a football team. Due to the sheer volume of participating halls, the league was initially divided into three sections for the first time in the twenty year history of interhall divisions. League was to consist of the freshman halls, league II was composed of Badin, Morrissey, Lyons, St. Edwards, and Howard, and League III contained Dillon, Walsh, Sorin, Alumni, and the Off-Campus team. Players were required to present a written physical from the University's physician before they were allowed to participate, and the squads were confined to approximately twenty-five men.

Frank Leahy gave his approval of the program in the following words: "We feel, as do many people, that interhall football may once again serve as the starting place for boys who have ambitions of playing on the varsity squad. Every Sunday some member of our varsity will officiate in each game. These players will have instructions to keep their eyes open for promising varsity material. Needless to say, we will respect any recommendations that the players give us in regard to star members of inter-hall teams."

It was reported that many players who were 'B' squad material had forgone their varsity stance in favor of interhall athletics, although Dick Ames was the only known interhall player to have had any background on the varsity squad.

Before the season officially began, Walsh hall was picked as the most likely champion based on the fact that a majority of the players from the two championship teams in 1940 moved into Walsh. Dillon was picked as the other contender to reach the interhall championship.

To ensure that the football season would run smoothly, Mr. Handy implemented many regulations to the interhall league. The first and most detrimental in hindsight was that a minimum of 18 players be present on each interhall squad, thus hindering the ability for some squads to reliably participate on a weekly basis. The second, and arguably most abstract, was a solution to the issue of tie games. Instead of allowing the game to end as a tie, as had been commonly done in the past (with the exception being the interhall championship game), the tiebreaker was to go to whichever team garnered the most first downs. The explanation for such an unusual ruling was that in the 1940 championship, Dillon clearly dominated St. Edward's in terms of yards gained and first downs, but was simply unable to reach the endzone. The game ended in a scoreless tie, and St. Edward's won the O'Donnell trophy on a coin toss, much to the chagrin of Dillon hall. Other rules included the re-affirmation that students could only participate on the interhall teams that were based in their own residence, and a stricter stance on what constituted a forfeit.

On November 2, Dillon shutout Carroll hall by the score of 45 to 0. This shattered the previous record for most points scored in an interhall football contest, the last record being set by Walsh in a 39–0 win over Freshman hall in 1931.

1941 championship
The 1941 interhall championship was played between Walsh and Zahm halls on November 23, at 2:00 p.m., in Notre Dame Stadium. Both teams donned varsity uniforms for the game, a tradition established by the 1940 championship between Dillon and St. Edward's. Walsh Hall entered the championship with a 5–0 record, having defeated their opponents by a combined score of 98 to 0. Zahm arrived with a 3–0 record, although they defeated their opponents by a less-impressive total of 27 to 6. A light snow covered the field on the day before the game was set to begin, and by Sunday afternoon the muddy field had completely iced over, handicapping both squads.

Although Walsh was heavily favored, the "Zahmbies" held their opponents to a scoreless tie. However, based on the new tiebreak rules, specifically implemented to avoid any future confusion in the interhall championship game, Walsh hall won the contest based on their five first downs to Zahm's one. The Walshites won the Reverend Hugh O'Donnell Interhall Football trophy that had sat in St. Edward's hall for the last year, and received individual medals for each of their players.

Alumni Hall
Alumni did not field a team during the 1941 season. They were supposed to have been coached by Turk Rively.

Badin Hall
In their thirty-seventh season, Badin hall competed in league II of the interhall league, and compiled a 3–1 interhall record. They were coached by Frank Platt.

Breen-Phillips Hall
In their second season, Breen-Phillips hall competed in league II of the interhall league, and compiled a 1–2 interhall record. They were coached by "Snorky" Buono.

In their forty-fourth season, Brownson hall competed in league I of the interhall league, and compiled a 0–3 interhall record. They were coached by Paul Corgan.

Carroll Hall
In their eighteenth season, Carroll hall competed in league I of the interhall league, and compiled a 1–2 interhall record. They were coached by Mike Mahon.

Cavanaugh Hall
In their second season, Cavanaugh hall competed in league II of the interhall league, and compiled a 1–2 interhall record. They were coached by John McNulty.

Dillon Hall

Morrissey Hall
In their eleventh season, Morrissey hall competed in league I of the interhall league, and compiled a 2–1 interhall record. They were coached by Elmer Peterson.

Sorin Hall
Sorin did not field a team during the 1941 season. They were supposed to have been coached by Joe Papa and "Scoop" Scanlan.

St. Edward's Hall
In their eighth season, St. Edward's hall competed in league I of the interhall league, and compiled a 0–3 interhall record. They were coached by Jerry Orosz.

Walsh Hall
In their twenty-eighth season, Walsh hall competed in league II of the interhall league, compiled a 6–0 interhall record, and became the 1941 interhall football champions. They were coached by Joe Ragolia and Bill Reagen, and captained by Steve Graliker.

Zahm Hall
In their second season, Zahm hall competed in league I of the interhall league, and compiled a 3–1 interhall record. They were coached by John Jaworski and later "Scoop" Scanlan, and captained by Cuddigan and Fitzpatrick. Zahm Hall gained notability for upsetting Dillon Hall in the de-facto league I championship game, who many picked to win the year's interhall championship. The "Zahmbies" were invited to the 1941 interhall football championship, where they tied the heavily-favored Walsh, but unfortunately were outscored in first downs 1 to 5.

Splinters'
The Splinters', a this-and-that section of the Notre Dame Scholastic, published a single-team selection. Dick Ames was the only member to have played on the University's varsity team, doing so as a freshman in 1938.

1942
The 1942 interhall football season was overseen by Vince Commisa. At the beginning of the season, intramural director John Scannell announced that the league would be split along the average weight barrier of 150 pounds. Any teams above the mark would be admitted to the "heavyweight" league, while all those below it would play in the "lightweight" league.

Heavyweight league
The heavyweight interhall football league was for players that exceeded 150 pounds and was supervised by Vince Commisa.

1942 heavyweight championship
The 1942 heavyweight interhall football championship was played between Dillon and Walsh halls in Notre Dame Stadium on November 22. Dillon hall was undefeated. Quarterback Red Murphy ran in the lone score on a 1-yard attempt. The match was the first interhall championship to end in a regulation win for any team since 1934.

Alumni Hall
In their seventh season, Alumni hall compiled (at least) a 2–3 interhall record. They were coached by Tony Burns.

Breen-Phillips Hall
In their third season, Breen-Phillips hall compiled (at least) a 2–3 interhall record. They were coached by Jim Torpey.

Cavanaugh Hall
In their third season, Cavanaugh hall compiled (at least) a 1–3–1 interhall record. They were coached by Bud Ahern.

Dillon Hall
In their eighth season, Dillon hall compiled (at least) a 5–0 interhall record, and were 1942 interhall football champions. They were coached by Bill Cuddigan, who also played halfback on the team. The Dillonites played under the Double wingback formation for the majority of the season.

Sorin Hall
In their thirty-second season, Sorin hall compiled (at least) a 3–1–1 interhall record. They were coached by Bob Dudley and Father Brennan.

St. Edward's Hall
In their ninth season, St. Edward's hall compiled (at least) a 0–5 interhall record. They were coached by Harry Florence.

Walsh Hall
In their twenty-ninth season, Walsh hall compiled (at least) a 5–1 interhall record. They were coached by Bill "Red" Murphy, and captained by Bill Dunne. The Walshites were major proponents of the T formation, which had recently been made the primary formation of the varsity squad.

Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps (NROTC)
The Naval R.O.T.C., a military division of the University during World War II, participated in the 1942 interhall season. They placed a team in the heavyweight division under Chief Specialist Jablowski and a lightweight squad led by Paul Corgan. The heavyweight team compiled (at least) a 1–3–2 record.

Lightweight league
The lightweight interhall football league was established for players that weighed less than 150 pounds, a novel concept that would come to be known as sprint football. The lightweight league was overseen by Bill Stewart of Alumni hall. Due to the high volume of games and diversity of the leagues, the Scholastic does not provide adequate records for the lightweights, besides the record of Zahm hall, who finished their season as the undefeated champion of the league. The "Zahmbies" also defeated Breen-Phillips hall 57 to 0, breaking the previous scoring record by 12 points.

Breen-Phillips
Breen-Phillips hall compiled a 0–2 interhall record in the lightweight league.

Cavanaugh
Cavanaugh hall compiled a 2–2? interhall record in the lightweight league.

Dillon
Dillon hall compiled a 0–4–1? interhall record in the lightweight league.

Main Building
A team representing the University's main building, which was an amalgamation of Carroll and Brownson halls, entered under lightweight coach Stan Murray. The two halls combined due to an lack of available players The Main Building team compiled a 2–2–2? interhall record in the lightweight league.

Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps (NROTC)
The Naval R.O.T.C., a military division of the University during World War II, participated in the 1942 interhall season. They placed a team in the heavyweight division under Chief Specialist Jablowski and a lightweight squad led by Paul Corgan. The N.R.O.T.C. compiled a 2–1–1? interhall record in the lightweight league.

Zahm Hall
Zahm hall compiled a 5–0 interhall record and was the 1942 interhall lightweight football champions.

The Dome
An official two-team all-interhall selection of the heavyweight league was made by interhall director Vince Commisa, and it was published in the Dome.

Splinters
A slightly modified version of Vince Commisa's selections were also published in the Pressbox Splinters, a section of the Scholastic, Issue 7. The all-Interhall players were tentatively scheduled to play against the reserve squad of Purdue. However, by the time the selections were made, the Purdue B had already returned their uniforms and equipment.

Freshman team
The frosh of 1942 were coached by Bob Snyder.

Reserves
Frank Leahy did not make enough cuts to the varsity team to warrant the need for a reserve team.

1943
The 1943 interhall football season was overseen by John Scannell, who was director of all intramural sports at the University. The season was overshadowed by the US involvement in World War II, which brought the V-12 program to Notre Dame to train men for positions as officers of the Navy. 250 players came out for the first interest meeting on September 20 at Brownson field. However, after just two weeks and as many games, the Physical Educational Department and the interhall coaches decided to fold the season due to a rigorous training time for the men in the V-12 program, which in 1943 constituted the vast majority of total students.

Alumni Hall
In their eighth season, the members of the V-12 program in Alumni hall, nicknamed the Alumni Sailors, compiled a 0–1 interhall record. They were coached by Chief Specialist Barba and assistant chief specialist Blemken. The interhall league folded after they lost to Zahm 43–0 in one of the most lopsided games in interhall history.

Cavanaugh Hall
The members of the V-12 program in Cavanaugh hall, nicknamed the Cavanaugh Marines, played no official football games during the 1943 interhall football season, although they did defeat a civilian team represented by Sorin Hall 33–0. They were coached by Chief Specialist Spann and assisted by Platoon Sergeant Tarro.

Dillon Hall
In their ninth season, the members of the V-12 program in Dillon hall, nicknamed the Dillon V-12ers, compiled a 0–1 interhall record. They were coached by Chief Specialist Gallagher and assistant chief specialist Hutmick.

Naval R.O.T.C.
In their second season, the Naval Reserve Officer's Training Corps compiled a – record against outside opponents. They were coached by Chief Specialist Harold C. Glover, and assisted by Specialists Robertson and Jivelickian. The collegiate military team was the first to organize for the 1943 season. Their status as an interhall team is disputed as they never played a game in the league, although they eligibly joined as the sixth team in the round-robin tournament. Their participation in the 1942 season also vindicates their inclusion as an interhall team. The Naval R.O.T.C. was the first residence hall-level team to compete against opponents off of Notre Dame campus since 1932.

Sorin Hall
In their thirty-third season, the University's remaining "civilian" student population, represented (possibly by name alone) by Sorin hall, compiled a 1–0 record, as well as an unofficial loss to the Cavanaugh Marines. They were coached by Chief Specialist Ijamo and assistant chief specialist Horan. During World War two, the number of students at Notre Dame who were not a part of the V-12 program or another war effort dwindled to less than three hundred.

Walsh Hall
The members of the V-12 program in Walsh hall, nicknamed the Walsh R.O.T.C., was scheduled to participate as one of the six teams in the 1943 interhall football season. However, the league folded before Walsh was able to schedule any games. They were supposed to have been coached by Chief Specialist Harold C. Glover and assistant chief specialist Jivelickian.

Zahm Hall
In their fourth season, the members of the V-12 program in Zahm hall, nicknamed the Zahm Marines, compiled a 1–0 interhall record. They were coached by Chief Specialist Robertson and Marine Sergeant King. It was reported after the game against Alumni that every player had played on a collegiate football team.

All-Interhall
There were no all-interhall selections during the 1943 season due to a lack of games.

1944 and 1945
While other interhall sports such as tennis, volleyball, cross-country, basketball, and baseball were contested during the final two years of World War II, football was temporarily disbanded. Touch football may have been informally employed by various halls, although no leagues were created that merited more than a brief mention in the Scholastic.

Tackle football
Interhall tackle football returned to the University after its second hiatus since the beginning of the twentieth century. John Scannell continued to oversee the league as Dean of the Physical Education department. Around 200 men were cleared to play interhall football in the first weeks of preparation for the tournament. The original plan was for a ten-team, four-game round robin schedule divided into the east and west divisions, while the eventual turnout was only seven teams. The majority of the squads implemented the T-formation, although eventual champion Lyons stuck with the single-wing.

While the three games of the eastern division are well-documented, there was practically no coverage of the western division. What is known is that the members were Breen-Phillips, Cavanaugh, St. Edward's and Zahm, they began play on October 6 just like the east campus group, they were deadlocked with the same records after week two (1–1) and St. Edward's was the champion. The final records were also provided by the Dome, although the entries on St. Edward's and Breen-Phillips halls are erroneous. The specific schedule, dates and outcomes are all unknown.

1946 interhall championship
The 1946 interhall football championship game was played at Cartier Field on November 10 between Lyons and St. Edward's halls. It was the first to be held on the old varsity field since the championship's modern conception in 1922. This was later identified as the result of the rain and a groundskeeper who worried the interhallers would ruin the natural grass. Lyons entered the contest with a 2–0 record and the west division title, while St. Edward's arrived with a 2–1 record in the eastern league. Additionally, this was Lyon's fifth appearance in the interhall championship, and St. Edward's fourth appearance.

Although it was raining, a large crowd gathered to watch the game. The first points came in the first quarter, when Lyons fullback "Big" Walt Mahannah broke off for a 70-yard touchdown run. The last touchdown was made by a pass from Mahannah to Muscatello in the third quarter. Although Lyons won by double-digits and held the St. Edward's scoreless, the "Saints" reportedly controlled the game in the first half and got as close as the 1-yard line.

The victory awarded Lyons their third interhall football championship.

Alumni Hall
In their ninth season, Alumni hall competed in the western division of the interhall league, and compiled a 1–1 interhall record.

Breen-Phillips Hall
In their fourth season, Breen-Phillips hall competed in the eastern division of the interhall league, and compiled a 1–2 interhall record.

Cavanaugh Hall
In their fourth season, Cavanaugh hall competed in the eastern division of the interhall league, and compiled a 1–1–1 interhall record.

Lyons Hall
In their thirteen season, Lyons hall competed in the western division of the interhall league, and compiled a 3–0 interhall record. They were coached by Raymond "Rocky Gibraltar" Chamberland. Lyons became the 1946 interhall football champions after defeating St. Edward's hall 14 to 0 on Cartier Field.

Morrissey Hall
In their twelfth season, Morrissey hall competed in the western division of the interhall league, and compiled a 0–2 interhall record.

St. Edward's Hall
In their tenth season, St. Edward's hall competed in the eastern division of the interhall league, and compiled a 2–2 interhall record. They may have been coached by Bernie Powers.

Zahm Hall
In their fifth season, Zahm hall competed in the eastern division of the interhall league, and compiled a 1–1–1 interhall record.

All-Interhall
No known all-interhall teams were published during the 1946 season.

Touch football
A plan for the introduction of an organized interhall touch league was implemented in September by John Scannell, with Mr. Maxwell appointed to oversee it's progress. However, it's likely that the league never materialized, as it had no mentions for the rest of the fall season.

1947
The 1947 interhall football season was overseen by Dominic Napolitano of the physical education department. Original plans for the season included a thirteen-team round robin tournament beginning October 20 and lasting eight weeks. Eligibility was restated as anyone who has not spent any time on the Varsity, frosh, or B teams.

1947 interhall championship
The 1947 interhall football championship game was played 2:00 p.m. at Notre Dame Stadium on November 23 between Cavanaugh and Lyons halls. The game was open to the public and was no charge. Cavanaugh entered as the eastern division champion and a 5–0 record, while Lyons came into the contest with a similar divisional title in the west and another 5–0 record. Lyons was also the defending champion and had not lost a game since 1941 (although they were on hiatus in 1942-43 and there was no interhall league in 1944-45), while Cavanaugh was able to claim the title of undefeated, untied, and unscored upon.

Expectations for the hall coaches were also high entering the championship game. Cavanaugh co-coach Pete Varda was reported to have devised a game plan so "top secret" that he did not even inform his players until the day of the game. Bernie Powers, Cavanaugh's player-coach, was ready to get revenge on Lyons after losing to them the previous year as quarterback of St. Edward's. Lyons head coach Ray Chamberland was eager to play in the stadium and was still bitter over being snubbed of the opportunity last season because of the rain that forced the game to be played on Cartier Field instead.

The game began on schedule with approximately a thousand fans in attendance. By halftime the two teams were deadlocked at zero. Later in the third quarter, high-scoring fullback Jim Presley and quarterback Bernie Powers completed a 65-yard drive for Cavanaugh's only touchdown. Presley scored from 8-inch line on 4th down after three successive goal line stands by Lyons. He also kicked the subsequent extra point, which would prove to be crucial. Lyons nearly tied the game in the final quarter after Powers was intercepted on his own 4-yard line by tackle Tom Hanifin and end Dick Moons. Bob Cianchetti ran the ball in to score the first points against Cavanaugh all season. However, the pass for a one-point conversion by Zeke Lane was batted down by Powers, allowing Cavanaugh to escape with a 7–6 decision.

Alumni Hall
In their tenth season, Alumni hall competed in the western division of the interhall league, and compiled a 1–2–2 record.

Badin Hall
In their thirty-eighth season, Badin hall competed in the western division of the interhall league, and compiled a 2–1–2 record.

Breen-Phillips Hall
In their fifth season, Breen-Phillips hall competed in the eastern division of the interhall league, and compiled a 1–4 record.

Cavanaugh Hall
In their fifth season, Cavanaugh hall competed in the eastern division of the interhall league, and compiled a 6–0 record. They were coached by Bernie Powers and Pete Varda. After defeating the defending champion Lyons 7 to 6 in Notre Dame Stadium, Cavanaugh was crowned the 1947 interhall football champions.

Dillon Hall
In their tenth season, Dillon hall competed in the western division of the interhall league and compiled a 2–2–1 record. They were coached by Jack Nusskern and assistant coach Jack McMahon.

Touch football
An interhall touch football tournment was contested during the fall of 1947. A team led by Emil Garolfaro won the championship.

All-Interhall
The all-interhall teams returned with a two-team selection by the Notre Dame Scholastic.

Vetville
Vetville, a group of small apartments behind Dillon hall was constructed to provided married couples with proper lodging while attending the University of Notre Dame. These families were filled with young veterans who had married early before World War Two and were still of a suitable age to attend college. "Vetville", as the site was colloquially deemed, was established in the fall of 1946, and almost immediately the men formed various sports teams. After a successful baseball team was organized in the interhall league during the summer of 1947, plans for a football team were also put into motion. However, by the time the season started on October 14, the veteran village had not organized a team.

Freshman
The freshmen football team returned to the University of Notre Dame for the first time in half a decade. Forty candidates reported to Cartier Field for training before usage as a prep squad against the varsity team, which would go on to win the national championship. The varsity-frosh pre-season contest was also played for the first time since 1942. The frosh were coached by Bill Vangen and his assistants, Marty Brutz, Jack Fallon, Joe Yonto, and Bill Heywood.

1948
The 1948 interhall football season was overseen again by Mr. Dominic Napolitano. Practice for the various hall teams began in late September, and the competitions were inaugurated on October 13. A survey was taken to determine the hall of all star interhallers in an attempt to guess a season favorite. A large group of the players from last year's champion Cavanaugh team had been relocated to Howard, who had not even won a spot in the finals since 1928. Additionally the players of Lyons, the runners-up in 1947, were nearly all situated at Walsh. The games were played on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, a departure from the usual Sunday schedule.

Interhall championship
The 1948 interhall football championship game was played on November 21 in Cartier Field between Dillon and Cavanaugh halls. Dillon entered as the western division champion and with a 4–0 record, while Cavanaugh came into the contest with a similar divisional title in the east and at least a 3–0 record. Cavanaugh was the defending champion and had won at least their last eight contests dating back to 1946. Both teams were undefeated, untied, and unscored upon, the first instance of this occurring since the 1934 title game. Additionally, the principle players of the Cavanaugh team had been playing together for the past two seasons, first for Breen-Phillips in 1946, and then leading Zahm last year. Jack McMahon had played as quarterback for Dillon in 1947 and was now their coach, leading a group that included four players who already participated on championship teams in the past; Ray Doherty, "Zeke" Lane, Dom Colletti, and Jim Quigley.

The game began on schedule on a temperate day. The power of Cavanaugh's passing attack coupled with the solid defense prowess of the Dillon linemen kept either team from scoring in the first half. Dillon tallied the only touchdown of the day on the first drive of the third quarter when Zeke Lane led a 62-yard drive that culminated in a 36-yard touchdown pass to Paul Hanifin. Cavanaugh controlled the rest of the contest, including three drives that nearly ended in touchdowns, but only managed to sack Zeke Lane in his own endzone for a safety at the end of the third quarter. Cavanaugh's first potential touchdown drive came after Dillon's touchdown, with a 48-yard run by Paul Schafly that set up first and goal at the Dillon 7. Cavanaugh fumbled the ball on the next play and Dillon recovered. Jimmy Driscoll broke through the line on the next play to score the safety. Later in the quarter, Cavanaugh returned to the redzone after a 71-yard drive, but fumbled the ball away again. In the fourth quarter, Cavanaugh quarterback Bob Barrett managed to reach the 12-yard line, but a pass to the endzone was intercepted. Dillon then escaped with the 6–2 victory.

Alumni Hall
In their eleventh season, Alumni hall competed in the western division of the interhall league and compiled a 1–1? record. They were coached by Pete Varda.

Cavanaugh Hall
In their sixth season, Cavanaugh hall competed in the eastern division of the interhall league and compiled a 3–1? record. They were coached by Paul Bolous.

Dillon Hall
In their eleventh season, Dillon hall competed in the western division of the interhall league and compiled a 5–0 record. They were coached by Jack McMahon, who also played as quarterback. After defeating Cavanaugh 6 to 2, Dillon was recognized as the 1948 interhall football champions.

Howard Hall
In their thirteenth season, and first since 1941, Howard hall competed in the western division of the interhall league and compiled a 2–1? record.

In their thirty-first season, Walsh hall competed in the eastern division of the interhall league and compiled a 3–1 record.

Zahm Hall
In their seventh season, Zahm hall competed in the eastern division of the interhall league and compiled a 2–2 record. They were coached by Ray "The Rock" Chamberland, who had led his last two teams to the interhall championship game.

Touch football
A successful interhall touch football tournament was supposedly carried out during the 1948 season. It began around late October with teams from Alumni, Badin, Breen-Phillips, Dillon, and Sorin halls. However, no mention was made of the league afterwards, except for a brief acknowledgment in the Notre Dame Dome. The yearbook listed a team led by Jack Hillbirch as the interhall touch champions. The team was not tied to any particular residense hall. Notable members included Tom Muscatello, an all-campus and important member of a Lyons team that reached the championship in 1947. The runners-up for the league were a team led by Emil Garolfaro, whose squad had reportedly won the championship last year.

1949
Interest meetings around September 19 inaugurated the 1949 season of the interhall football league. Dominic Napolitano returned as interhall football administrator and revealed brand new equipment for the players. The traditional playing and practice field south of the Tennis Courts were also re-sodded. Pre-season dope favored Pete Varda's Dillonites as the eventual East campus champion, while Morrissey received unprecedented support to win the Western division. Walsh hall of the western league was pegged as the "dark horse". Although unconfirmed, the 1949 season may have been the first time that interhall teams employed the two-platoon system, which eliminated restrictions on substitutions in favor of the ability for teams to field an offensive and defensive team of 22 players. Mike Cuddihy wrote a summary of the Breen-Phillips-Farley game and stated, "threatening throughout but scoring only once, a well-coached Farley Hall twenty-two (eleven is obsolete), blanked Breen-Phillips, 6-0."

Interhall championship
The 1949 interhall football championship game was played on November 20 at Cartier Field between Farley and Walsh halls. Farley entered as the west campus champion and a 3–1 record, while Walsh appeared with a similar divisional title in the west campus and a 3–0 record.

The championship was played on a cold and windy day, with the temperature around twenty degrees Fahrenheit. Halfback Charlie Mauch opened the scoring with a five-yard rush early in the first quarter. To compensate for the missed PAT, Walsh also scored a safety before the end of the quarter when Jim Drennan and Jack Ferry pulled down a Farley back in the end zone. Walsh scored twice before halftime. The first was a pass from quarterback Augie Gentilucci to right end Bucky O'Keefe. Kreuz then completed the only successful conversion of the football game. Near the end of the quarter Jack Courtney reached the endzone on a fourth-and-goal to give Walsh a 21–0 lead going into halftime. The last touchdown was made by Mauch on a seventy-yard run in the third quarter. The game ended with the ball on Farley's five-yard line.

The final score of 27–0 was the most lopsided score in the 27-year history of the interhall football championship, and exceeded the previous record by 8 points. Walsh received twenty-two gold footballs for their starting lineup and achieved the distinction of the first confirmed champion to finish undefeated, untied, and unscored upon since Lyons hall in 1928.

All-Interhall
No known all-campus teams were published during the 1949 season.

Touch football
A successful interhall touch football league was operated during the 1949 season under the direction of Ernie Szekely. Unlike prior years, the league experienced an adequate coverage from the Scholastic, although there are still games that were left unrecorded. Rules for the touch game varied slightly from tackle football, with first downs set at 20 yards and penalties for leaving the ground at any point to block or dive. Badin Bog, which had been used informally for years as a touch football field, became the site for the contests. The teams were also composed of nine men, as opposed to the eleven found on tackle football squads. The tournament was played as a double-elimination round-robin.

Farley, the newest freshman hall on campus, also sponsored an intrahall league for their own residents.

Reserves
The reserves compiled a 2–0 record during their 1949 season, defeating the Purdue B squad twice in a home-and-home series.

1950
The 1950 interhall tackle football season began around October 5th on the fields behind the tennis courts, and was overseen by Mr. Napolitano.

Interhall championship
The 1950 interhall football championship game was played 2:00 p.m. at Notre Dame Stadium on November 19 between Morrissey and St. Edward's halls. Morrissey entered as the west campus champion and with a 2–0–1 record, while St. Edward's won their appearance with a similar divisional title in the east campus and a 3–1 record. It was the first championship game in which neither team entered with a perfect record since 1933. The contest was also the first to be played in Notre Dame Stadium since 1947, inclement weather having forced a relocation of the last two championships to Cartier Field.

The game began under a steady rain, as was becoming a sort of tradition over the past few seasons. Luckily, the championship was not relocated like prior years. Morrissey scored their first of five touchdowns on the second possession of the first quarter, when Tom Walker drove around the left end for pay dirt. The conversion failed when the ball was fumbled on the kick attempt. A bad punt in the second quarter allowed Morrissey to take possession on St. Edward's 35-yard line. They initially scored on a rush, but the touchdown was called back because of an offsides penalty. However, a few plays later fullback Kucharczuk broke through from the 3-yard line to put Morrissey up 12 to 0 at halftime. The second half was much of the same as Morrissey was again given great field position and Tom Walker scored another touchdown on a 24-yard run. This time Smith succeeded in kicking the extra point. In the final quarter, Pierce Walsh scored a pick six when he intercepted a desperation pass by St. Edward's quarterback Fred Crowe and ran in from the 21-yard line. Smith then kicked another successful conversion. With only a few minutes remaining, Walker faded back and completed a pass to Dan McGovern who evaded tacklers and managed to score on the 61-yard play.

Morrissey dominated St. Edward's throughout every quarter of the football game to win 32–0, more than five times as many points as they had scored during the regular season. It was the most lopsided score in the history of the championship, surpassing the previous record of 27–0 that was set last season. The "Saints" could do nothing against Morrissey's lines, and star fullback Fred Crowe completed just four of his eighteen pass attempts. Left halfback Tom "Doak" Walker was Morrissey's offensive star, scoring two touchdowns and passing for another.

Alumni Hall
In their thirteenth season, Alumni hall competed in the west campus of the interhall league and compiled a 1–1–1 record. They were coached by Frank Bleyer.

Reserves
The reserves of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish football team played a four-game schedule during the 1950 season. Under coach ___ they compiled a __ record and outscored their opponents by a combined total of __ to __.

1951
The 1951 interhall tackle football season was overseen by Dominic Napolitano, and began on September 17 with nine participating halls and the Off-Campus team. Of the thirteen games that were played (including the championship), all but one were shutouts.

Interhall championship
The 1951 interhall football championship game was played 1:00 p.m. at Notre Dame Stadium on November 18 between Cavanaugh and Morrissey halls. Cavanaugh entered as the east campus champion and with a 3–0 record, while Morrissey came into the contest with a similar divisional title in the west campus and a 3–0 record. Both teams were undefeated, untied, and unscored upon, Morrissey having held this particular title since week one of the 1950 season.

The contest was played during a driving snowstorm, earning the nickname of the "Snow Bowl". Cavanaugh and Morrissey struggled under the snow and entered halftime with neither team scoring. The only offensive threat made during the half was a seven play, 45-yard drive by Cavanaugh to the Morrissey 12 during their first possession, but the defensive line successfully stopped Cavanaugh's advance. Late in the third quarter, Morrissey fumbled the ball on their own 8-yard line and the ball was recovered by Charlie Patterson. Cavanaugh capitalized on the miscue and sent Mike Laughlin through to their first touchdown. In the fourth quarter with the momentum in their favor, Cavanaugh scored on their next possession as well. The drive was highlighted by a 40-yard pass from Pete Chase to Mike Laughlin. All chance of a comeback was squashed when a high snap on a crucial fourth down punt allowed for Cavanaugh to recover on Morrissey's two-yard line, where they promptly scored their final touchdown.

Prominent features were the unfortunate miscues by the Morrissey offense and the strength of the teams respective defenses. All-campus fullback Fred Bellissomo starred for Morrissey on the ground, although their passing attack was stymied by the harsh weather. Despite this, Cavanaugh quarterback Pete Chase completed three of his six attempts, including the forty-yarder to Laughlin. Bob Chickey, Mike Laughlin, and Legrou combined to lead Cavanaugh's rush attack and were another great factor.

Breen-Phillips Hall
In their eighth season, Breen-Phillips hall competed in the east campus of the interhall league and compiled a 0–1–2 record. They were coached by Bill Ryan.

Cavanaugh Hall
In their ninth season, Cavanaugh hall competed in the east campus of the interhall league, compiled a 4–0 interhall record and a 4–0–1 record overall. They were coached by Aaron Dyson.

Dillon Hall
In their thirteenth season, Dillon hall competed in the east campus of the interhall league and compiled a 2–1 record. They were coached by Don Owens, and captained by Art Midili.

Howard Hall
Howard dropped out of interhall football before playing any contests. They were supposed to have been coached by Gene Perry.

Farley Hall
In their fifth season, Farley hall competed in the east campus of the interhall league and compiled a 0–2–1 record. They were coached by Jim Riha.

Lyons Hall
In their eighteenth season, Lyons hall competed in the west campus of the interhall league and compiled a 1–2 record. They were coached by Dan Finn, and captained by Ed Burns.

Morrissey Hall
In their seventeenth season, Morrissey hall competed in the west campus of the interhall league, compiling a 3–1 interhall record and a 4–2 record overall. They were coached by Nick Arnato. The Morrissey outfit, which reached the interhall championship after leading the west campus programs, played the most diverse schedule of any interhall team over the past two decades. They participated in one the only games on record between a residence hall and a component of the varsity program, and also played the only prison football team in interhall history.

Off-Campus team
The Off-Campus team dropped out of interhall football before playing any contests. They were supposed to be coached by Tom Powers.

St. Edward's Hall
In their fifteenth season, St. Edward's hall competed in the west campus of the interhall league and compiled a 0–3 record. They were coached by John Woeppel, and captained by Bill Brewer.

Zahm Hall
In their tenth season, Zahm hall competed in the east campus of the interhall league and compiled a 1–1–1 record. They were coached by Dick Tighe, and captained by Joe Hayden.

All-Interhall
The Scholastic published a single all-campus team that were chosen by a pool of eight interhall coaches and three Scholastic sportswriters. The selected players were given a white jersey with "INTERHALL" across the front and posed together in numerous photos.

Interhall touch football
Interhall touch football existed during the 1951 season, but practically nothing is known of it. The only information comes from a brief excerpt in the Splinters, when columnist Jack Varley stated that Bill Gorman, who was coach, player, manager, and cheerleader of the Walsh touch team, had received a letter from Walsh alumni after their loss to the Dillonites. The letter read, "Good-by Bill".

Reserves and freshmen
New eligibility rules caused a consolidation of the varsity frosh into the varsity reserves team. They were coached by Joe McArdle for their scrimmages against the varsity, and were overseen by a trio of coaches during their regular season games. The three coaches were Dick Cotter, Bob Lally, and Gene Smith. After a ragged defeat by the varsity on September 15, the second-stringers pulled off an upset for the ages when they eked out a 14–13 game and became the first reserve unit to defeat the varsity in a regulation football game since the first world war (coincidentally, the team that defeated the varsity in 1918 was also a combined frosh-reserves squad). The B squad compiled a 0–2–1 record against outside opponents and a 1–3–1 record overall. Two of their five games, the home-and-home series against the Michigan State B team, were cancelled due to inclement weather and muddy fields. This was most unfortunate, as the Michigan State "Jayvees" were coached by none other than future Notre Dame head coach Dan Devine, who at the time was an assistant under Biggie Munn. He would not ascend to his position with the Fighting Irish for another twenty-four years.

1952
The 1952 interhall tackle football season was overseen by Dominic Napolitano and began around early October with seven participating halls and the Off-Campus team. Games were tentatively scheduled during each week and were not reserved for a specific day, thus decreasing the chance of forfeits. For example, week one was played from October 6 to 11, week two's window was between October 13 and 18, and week three was October 20 to 25. This practice had been carried out for several years.

Interhall championship
The 1952 interhall football championship game was played 2:00 p.m. at Cartier Field on November 9 between Breen-Phillips hall and the Off-Campus team. Breen-Phillips entered as the east division champion and with a 3–0–1 record, while the Off-Campus squad came into the contest with a similar divisional title in the west and a 2–0–1 record. Breen-Phillips also arrived unscored upon, while Off-Campus had ceded only six points during the regular season.

Off-Campus took a six-point lead early in the second quarter after recovering a fumbled punt by quarterback Dick Rust. Jim Pudlowski then passed to Don Yarr who cut around his own right end and ran thirteen yards to the endzone. The teams traded possessions to enter the half with Off-Campus leading 6–0. The third quarter was much of the same, with Tom Denk and Don Yarr snatching interceptions for their respective squads but neither converting the turnovers into touchdowns. With just minutes remaining it seemed like the Off-Campus team would hang on to win their first championship since 1929, when Knute Rockne was at the height of his impact on the interhall football league. However, the right side of Breen-Phillips line managed to block a punt by Ed Hogan on Off-Campus' own 20-yard line. Then "Rink" Castorina and Tom Caplet moved the ball to the 3-yard line, which proved close enough as Dick Rust smashed in for a touchdown. The ensuing extra point by Caplet sealed Breen-Phillips' 7–6 victory over the Off-Campus eleven.

The 1952 championship was the second since 1922 to be decided by a single point, joining Cavanaugh's 7–6 win over Lyons in 1947. The game also broke a streak of three consecutive championships that were decided by three or more touchdowns, which was an unusual occurrence. Breen-Phillips had never held a winning record in the nine seasons since the hall was established, and had won two games just once in that span, thus making their undefeated 4–0–1 season all the more impressive.

Breen-Phillips Hall
In their ninth season, Breen-Phillips hall competed in the east campus of the interhall league and compiled a 4–0–1 record. They were coached by Ralph Weiss, who by the end of the season had been named the "Hall Coach of the year" by the Notre Dame Scholastic, and was assisted by Frank Dionise. After defeating the Off–Campus team 7 to 6 on Cartier Field, Breen-Phillips was crowned 1952 interhall football champions.

Cavanaugh Hall
In their tenth season, Cavanaugh hall competed in the east campus of the interhall league and compiled a 2–1–1 record. They were coached by Tom Parsley.

1956-1959
Personal note to myself: Patrick Dennis Heenan won the interhall football championship for his hall for the 1956, 1957, and 1958 seasons. What hall he resided in though is unknown (probably Dillon at least for one year). I’m pretty sure that students did not stay at the same hall during the 50s.

List of interhall champions
This is a comprehensive list of the various champions of Notre Dame's interhall football league. Although the first non-varsity campus games began in 1887 (with some reports suggesting the sport arrived at Notre dame in 1885), it was not until the 1890-1891 season that teams under the identity of their residence hall played and were awarded an interhall championship.

On November 11, 1890, Brownson and Sorin halls played the first known interhall football contest, in what was deemed the "University Football Championship". Sorin won the contest by a single safety, with the final score a 2–0 Sorin victory.

Even after this monumental contest, hall teams were incredibly rare in the 19th century. Additional problems surrounded what constituted a hall football team. Many teams during the early interhall period could be known as "a Sorin Hall team", while identifying more with the team captain than their hall of residence. Carroll and St. Edward's halls were also controversial in their place among the hall teams. before 1906, Carroll Hall was home to the junior department of Notre Dame, while St. Edward's housed the Minim, or grammar school department.

These departments played far more often in the early years than any of the college teams, and particularly with the Carroll team, an argument can be made that they are the rightful interhall champions for the 1893-1894 season. They played a six-game "championship" series against the "Ex-Carrollites", which was the name for a team from Brownson Hall. The Carrollites won the series 3–2–1, and so had the best claim to the championship of 1893. However, questions of whether these teams represented their respective halls in the contests is unknown, so ultimately the championship is unknown. To complicate the situation further, three days after the championship game on January 18, 1894, Carroll Hall lost to Sorin 18 to 0 to end the interhall season. This also gives Sorin fair claim to the championship, although there was never any report of them claiming it. Sorin's outright championship in 1890 and the Carrollites quasi-championship in 1893 are the only two years during the 19th century that an interhall championship was claimed although an interhall champion can be named for each of the seasons based on limited recorded of games.

Modern Male championships
The difference between modern and pre-modern champions was the establishment of divisions and the interhall championship game in 1922. Prior to this, post-season games were rarely ever scheduled to determine a champion, and even these games were no more than de-facto and ad-hoc. Examples of such archaic championships were the first "University football championship" in 1890 between Sorin and Brownson halls and the Corby-Sorin contest in 1904.

Female championships
†-Represents teams that were not crowned interhall champions by any hsitorical or contemporary sources, but could claim the championship based on their known interhall record for that season.
