...through its defeat, on Monday, at the hands of Princeton. Cornell and Dartmouth neither of whom have won a game will probably finish in the last two places. This does not mean, however, that the University team will not have a hard game on Saturday, for Cornell has developed fast in the last week, or two, and on Monday held Yale to a 2 to 1 score in an overtime game...
...University hockey team defeated the B. A. A., 5 to 1, in a long scrimmage held in the Arena last evening. Play was hard and fast throughout, but somewhat crude, especially on the part of the forwards. Osgood of the Intercolonials took Winsor's place in the B. A.

Play lasted over 40 minutes, during which both teams were continually on the jump, the B. A. A. men playing an especially fast game, and shooting well and accurately. Blackall was given a day off, Wingate taking his place; but otherwise the University line-up was as usual...
