...Lyon, Jr., 3L., won the University tennis championship yesterday afternoon by defeating R. Bishop 3L., 6-3, 6-4, 6-0. The playing of both men was very erratic and careless, as shown by many double faults and netted balls. Lyon clearly outplayed Bishop at the net and in overhead strokes. Bishop failed to take advantage of chances to pass Lyon and very seldom played at the net, being kept back by Lyon's accurate drives past...
...Second nine defeated St. Mark's School in a loosely played seven-inning game at Southboro on Saturday, by the score of 14 to 3. In fielding, the work of the Second nine was on the whole fast and accurate, but included four errors; the base-running was less careless and showed more life than in the last few games played, five bases being stolen. Opposed by a weak pitcher, the nine batted creditably, and bunched their hits well, especially in the second inning, when six runs were made. St. Mark's played a loose, unsteady game, with little team...

Their fielding as shown by fourteen errors, was wretched, and they were wholly unable to bat successfully. The base-running was careless and slow, and the throwing, especially that of Quigley, exceedingly wild. In the outfield the men were slow in starting, weak in throwing and showed poor judgement, while team work was almost wholly lacking in the infield.

...team at Franklin this afternoon. As Dean has a strong, well developed team the game will probably be the hardest the Freshmen have played this season. Up to the present time the Freshmen have shown rather irregular development, at times playing fast, accurate ball and at other times being careless and slow. Their base-running has in general been characterized by listlessness and a failure to make the most of their opportunities. The batting, though much better the last few days, still shows a tendency to hit the ball into the air and to strike at wide balls...
...lost most of the games played this spring. The Second nine during the past few days, has improved in both batting and fielding, but has fallen off noticeably in ability to bunt, and in the practice game played with the Freshmen yesterday their base-running was slow and careless...
