The Freshman team played sluggishly on the defense, and were unable to take advantage of their opponents' frequent fumbling. The Sophomores, on the other hand, met the Freshman attack with a good charge, and were often successful in throwing the opposing backs for a loss. The work of Metcalf of the Freshmen, and Dall of the Sophomores, was conspicuously good; the former for his excellent punting, and the latter for his fast end running...
