Although the Freshmen started off confidentially and scored a touchdown by powerful line bucking within the first eight minutes of play, Andover's later-season perfection of the forward pass proved too much for the 1920 defense.

Again in the last quarter, Groton intercepted a forward pass on the 20-yard line, and prevented a score. Groton came near scoring in the second period, when the seconds held for downs on their own four-yard line...
