Ninety-one won the toss and took the ball. The usual V was formed and a gain made. Moen and McNear failed to make the necessary amount and the ball went to '92. Henry and Newell made advances and Forbes made a ten yard gain. After some fumbling McLeod got the ball out ofa scrimmage and ran from the '91 goal almost the length of the field towards '92 's line. Curtis caught up to him and tackled him just before he reached the line. The juniors prevented any further gain, and soon recovered the ball. White made a long...
...game was called at 4.18, '93 having the ball. A V was formed and a gain made, but on a fumble by Robb, the ball went to '94. The freshmen kicked, and Parker and Robb carried the ball back again.

Harvard failed to gain and was forced to kick. Exeter then made a good gain by a criss-cross. Both sides kicked with more or less advantage and soon Exeter recovered the ball on some very bad passing. They soon got the ball near the line and Phelan kicked a remarkably pretty goal from the thirty yard line. Score...
