...closing moments of the contest, when Harvard had every man but the goal tender in Princeton's territory driving the puck towards the opposing cage, were extremely thrilling and had the audience on its feet most of the time. When one of Duncan's shots hit Kay's skate and just missed going into the net it looked for an instant as though an extra period would be necessary.

The Princeton men made vain attempts at team-work, but, with the exceptions of Kay and McKinney, could not skate fast enough to hold a lead over the University forwards. On the whole, the game was cleanly played, although men were put off several times for tripping and general rough work...
