...very weak, due principally to Newick's strong pitching and good judgment, and except in one inning hits were not forthcoming when there were men on bases. In the field the work was very inaccurate and slow, and the men showed nervousness in handling infield hits. One fast and brilliant play took place in the sixth inning, when McGrath was caught between third base and the plate on Cregg's steal of second...
...batted well. He injured his leg and retired in the fifth inning. Coolidge then went to short stop and Daly to second base. The latter seemed nervous and made a costly error. Coolidge was not as steady as usual in the field, making two wild throws, but showed brilliant judgment in catching McGrath near the plate in the sixth inning. The entire team, with the exception of Wood and Randall showed poor ability to hit with men on the bases...

In the qualifying round of the individual championship he tied Brown for the lowest score. W. E. Egan '05 was runner-up to Travis in the national championship last summer. U. A. Murdock '04, W. W. Hoffman '02 and T. M. Richards '04 have all done well in open tournaments...
