...chief handicap to the team's progress still is its poor stickwork. The players would get the puck way up at the end of the rink and then lose it, and many excellent opportunities were let go by in this way, for practically all the playing was down in the opponents' territory. Only one scrimmage in front of the net resulted in a goal, the other two resulting from long shots...
...Rice '17 started the practice well by shooting past Barry after a succession of pretty passes. E. O. Baker '17 knocked the puck in from a scrimmage for the second tally and G. A. Percy '18 obtained the third after some more good mid-rink combination play.

The Boston seven showed flashes of team work but was not consistent. Both of its goals were scored...

The regulars would carry the puck back into the Freshmen's half of the rink with a pretty display of passing back and forth, but though the mid-rink offence was good the close-in work failed...
