...following back, but Duncan seemed neither as fast nor as clever as last year, when his chief value to the team was his ability to knock in rebounds. One reason for this is that this year there is no forward who can get all the way up the rink for a shot. The position of left wing was filled by Sortwell almost from the very start and, although he was not used to that part of the line, he has developed rapidly and works well with the other forwards. Right end presented the greatest difficulty for the coaches to solve...
During the Christmas recess the team went to New York to practice in the St. Nicholas Rink and, in a scrub game defeated the St. Nicholas Club 2 to 0. The second match of the schedule did not come until January 10, when Princeton was played in New York. The Tigers were known to be very strong and after the exhibition against Technology, few hopes for success could be held. The men fairly outdid themselves, however, and returned with a 3 to 2 victory. This triumph seemed to be sufficient grounds for believing that Princeton would be again defeated...

It then went to Cleveland for its series with Princeton, and from there to Syracuse for a series with Cornell. Princeton chiefly through the individual work of Baker won the first two games in Cleveland by decisive scores.

The absence of these two players, forwards, has been very noticeable all winter for there has been no one who could be regularly depended upon to take the puck down the rink as either of these two could be. There remained Huntington, Duncan and Blackall, who won the hockey insignia last year, Gardner, captain of his Freshman team two years ago, Pierce, Palmer, Houston and Smart, substitutes a year ago, and Sortwell, Willetts and Wingate of last year's Freshman team, to draw from. With such...
