...completely outplayed. Early in the game, West of Colgate put a goal from placement over the bar, and the Maroon team held this slight lead until the last quarter, when Legore caught a forward pass and crossed the goal line for the touchdown that won the game. This lone score came after the Colgate halfback, Hubbell, had been so hurried in his punting that he had been unable to kick the ball accurately, and it went outside on his 20-yard line.

Burnham '19 crossed the goal line on the sixth subsequent play and A. W. Gardner '18 kicked the goal. The next score came immediately after the kick-off when Burnham intercepted a pass and the ball was taken over the line by M. Horne '18 after four rushes from the 40-yard line...
