...Freshmen eleven was defeated by Groton School at Groton on Saturday in their first game this season by the score of 6 to 0. The work of the Freshman team was fairly encouraging considering the short time the men have been playing together. The defeat was due rather to poor team play than to lack of individual effort. Although the Freshman line was heavier than that of its opponents, Groton, owing to superior speed and team play was able to gain fairly consistently, especially during the first half. The Freshman backs were given little assistance while carrying the ball...
Maine's kickoff was poor and Kersburg got the ball on the 40-yard line. Wendell and Foster gained only a yard on two end runs and Hall punted to Minor on Maine's 38-yard line.

Toward the middle of the period Hanley punted to the first team's 23-yard line. Leonard caught the ball and ran to the 48-yard line, where Cunniff finally stopped him after a splendid diving tackle. Near...
...frequent fumbles Yale only scored once. In the second half Yale's superior weight began to tell and with good team work four touchdowns were made in ten minutes. Long runs by Stevenson, Jones and Bigelow were features of the game. Captain Shevlin did not play on account of poor physical condition...
