...superiority in pitching and batting. Both teams fielded poorly. Harvard was especially weak in this respect, making five errors and a number of mistakes in judgment which proved very costly. Harvard made only seven hits and was unable to bunch them, except in the third inning, while Yale batted hard and in the first, sixth and seventh innings bunched thirteen hits.

The University and Freshman four-oar crews were sent over the course for the first time together. The Freshmen were given two lengths at the start and finished a length ahead of the University four-oar. Shortly before dark the Yale university crew passed Red Top, going over a mile course in fine form. If the cool, pleasant weather only continues great improvement may be expected in the work of all the crews...
