...strong resistance, but they have not as yet shown that they can win. Just the opposite of this is Princeton. She is millions for attack, but not a cent for defence. Instead of sticking like burs to their opponents they try to carry the ball through the goal by a series of rushes, each man pushing on regardful only of his objective point. Let them once lose the ball in playing against such a club as New York and their opponents go through them like the wind, passing the ball from one man to another. It is a question...
...York University as a rule, while the knowing ones were there to see "our city club scoop her in again." Six teams entered - New York, Bloom-field, Princeton, N. Y.

The first goal was made by Noyes of Harvard in about five minutes, the second by Woods...

The most brilliant playing on Harvard's side was done in the first half of the game, when they succeeded in getting two goals, kicked from touchdowns by Edmands, and one from the field by Mason. In the second three-quarters the Techs did better, and Harvard only succeeded in getting one goal, which was kicked from the field by Mason. The play of our team has been materially improved since their last match, and the spectators were much...
...match there will be a contest in long throwing with the crosse in order to establish a United States record. Two members from each club will enter this contest. The prize offered is a silver-mounted lacrosse stick. The Harvard team will be made up as follows: Easton, goal; Davis, point ; Noble, cover point ; Marquand and Thorndike, defense fielders ; Coit, Williams and Ennis, centre fielders ; Nichols and Rueter, offense fielders ; Noyes and Woods, homes...
