...when Hardwick found a hole at left tackle, and went through for a 15-yard run, after the ball had been advanced from the mid-field by a series of plunges. Storer missed the goal, for the ball was carried across near the sidelines, and the punt-out was poor...
Harvard won the first game at Philadelphia after a brilliant ninth inning rally by the score of 3 to 1. Felton and Captain Imlay had a pitchers' battle in which the Harvard twirler had slightly the better of the argument.

Severe as the defeat was, it was due not to poor rowing on the part of the University eight, but rather to the remarkable form and power displayed by the Cornell crew...
