Mount Pleasant's punting seemed to be the mainstay of the Indian team. The eleven lost its two chances to score when Libby missed a drop kick on the 37-yard line and a goal from placement after a fair catch in the middle of the field...
Although neither eleven scored in the first half the 30 minutes of play was intensely interesting due to Carlisle's two attempts for goals from the field and to Mount Pleasant's punts, one of which went over Harvard's goal line for a touchback.
