...study of Harvard's play shows very little. Harvard did a little better than Yale in punting; her punts were longer, the ends got down well and tackled brilliantly, and an exchange of punts usually lost ground for Yale. There were many other departments of the game in which Harvard has done better, and it seemed at times that the team did not play as well as it did against Pennsylvania; but even had there been more quickness in the line, more accuracy in the tackling, less off-side play and less fumbling, the game would not have been...
...minute later Yale followed. Captain Daly won the loss and chose the north goal, with a light wind in Harvard's favor. Hale kicked off to Daly on Harvard's twenty yard line, Daly returned it by a punt to Sharpe in midfield, and on Sharpe's fumble Hallowell got the ball for Harvard. On the kick-off, however, Coy had been offside and Yale had to kick-off again. Sawin returned this kick-off to Sharpe at Yale's fifty yard line. After three short line gains Sharpe circled right end for twenty yards, taking the ball to Harvard...
Kendall kicked off to Fincke on Yale's twenty-five yard line, and Harvard held Yale on two downs. Hale punted to the middle of the field; Sawin and Ellis gained a first down, but then Sawin was forced to punt. Sharpe got the ball on Yale's five yard line, and with Hale and the tackles then started another series of short gains through the line. The ball was slowly carried to Harvard's thirty yard line, where Harvard got it for holding. On the next play Sawin punted to Sharpe on Yale's forty yard line. Sharpe fumbled...
Chadwick caught Kendall's kick-off on the thirty-five yard line, and two line plunges carried the ball to the middle of the field, where Harvard got it on downs. Sawin and Ellis made seven yards on five plunges, and then Sawin punted to Yale's twenty yard-line. After a five yard gain by Hale and a seven yard end run by Chadwick, Hallowell stopped Sharpe for a loss of five yards and Hale had to punt. Burnett was then substituted for Lee. Sawin punted at once to Yale's twenty yard line, and after several short plunges...
...punted to the Sophomores' twenty-yard line. Noyes then made a poor punt and the Juniors obtained the ball on the twenty-eight-yard line. Using tackles back formation, 1902 forced the ball to the Sophomores' three yard line, but were there held for downs. Noyes punted and 1903 got the ball on their own twenty-five yard line. They then pushed down the field, although three substitutes were put in, and by the aid of ten yards for off-side play, reached the Juniors' thirty yard line. Here 1902 held for downs and punted out of danger. The game...
