...work comes. As yet there has been practically no strenuous rowing--in fact not a single time row has been taken over the full course this spring. For two miles the crew has abundant speed, and there is reason to believe that they can go the full course equally fast. The results so far have given the University that confidence in the crew's ability that is as necessary to victory as too much confidence is fatal...
...splendid one-hand catch in the ninth prevented Simons's high throw from being an error. At the bat he showed good form, securing a timely single, and a neat sacrifice. Leonard played a finished game on third, getting everything within reach, and in the eighth started a fast double play to McCall who threw to Harding and spoiled Brown's chances. Simons was unsteady in the field, but retrieved himself at the bat with two singles...

Goepper, g. g., Donald Crandall, p. i.h., Patch Thompson, c.p. o.h., Drummond Cochrane, 1d. 1a., Rigel Wentworth, 2d. 2a., Buckholz Downer, 3d. 3a., Durfee Alexander, c. c., Profit Vance, 3a. 3d., Petrie Smith, 2a. 2d., Bellringer Sheip, 1a. 1d., Wells Cobb, o.h. c.p., Richards Furber, i.h. p., Dwinnell
Last Saturday the Freshmen tied Yale in a game of fifteen hard-fought innings, the score ending 2 to 2.

McKay, who pitched the whole game at New Haven, will be in the box again today, while Yale will put in a new man, Hartwell. The Freshmen will have the advantage of playing on home grounds, and the game should be close. Positions in the batting orders have been slightly changed and the two teams...
...season ambitions. And yet those who have seen most of the games in the recent defeats have felt that the team has great latent possibilities and is far from the form of which it is capable. Princeton, with a team of experienced players, is in championship form; Yale is fast rounding into shape. We undeniably have the individual ability; why not some team-play and victories...
