...strong positions of the Harvard line were the guards and ends. Burden and A. R. Sargent played a fast and consistent game. Campbell and Hallowell also were impregnable on the defense and entered into the offense with dash and spirit. They ran down the field under punts in perfect style. Although responsible for one or two of West Point's minor gains, J. Lawrence played better than he has at any time this season. He was cool and was not guilty of his old fault of offside play...
Harvard scored in two minutes of play. After two exchanges of kicks in Harvard's favor, Daly caught Ennis's punt and ran to West Point's thirty-yard line. Gains through the line took the ball to the fifteen yard line, and then Sawin scored on an end play. During the remainder of the half, Harvard scored a second time by steady gains through the opposing line. At no time was the Harvard goal in danger. In the second half, by the same line-bucking tactics, Harvard secured the ball several times on West Point's ten-yard line...

They tackled well, but fumbled a great deal and ran too high. Only once, in the second half, did it seem likely that they would score, but the ball was lost and Brill quickly punted it out of danger. Exeter, on the other hand, played a sharp and fast game, but missed the chance to score by attempting four goals from the field, which were all unsuccessful...
Behind the line there was a great deal of confusion, as many of the backs were kept out by slight injuries. There was also a good deal of fumbling, in which respect Ellis and Warren were the worst offenders. Sawin played at quarter, and ran the team well...
...short halves which were played yesterday, the first eleven scored three times. In the first half, the second kicked off to Daly, who ran the length of the field for a touchdown. The rest of the half was devoted to line bucking, but, owing to the strong defense of the second eleven, which succeeded in holding the first on the fifteen-yard line, there was no more scoring. In the second half, the first scored twice by line plunging, Ellis and Warren carrying the ball over the line...
