...Hicks '10 pitched a no-hit game against Princeton, a feat never accomplished before or since. Spalding came close, even closer than the box score indicates, to equalling Hicks's performance. In the fifth inning with two out shortstop Richards, guaging a Spalding twist badly, caught it on the handle of his bat and dropped it over Campbell's head into short right field for a single.
