...lack of head work which was very noticeable so late in the season. They were unable to hit at critical times with men on bases and were quite unable to bunt successfully. The base-running was not as good as it has been and at times the fielding was slow. Nichols played a good game at first base, making sixteen put-outs and catching a very difficult ball in right field. Castle pitched fairly well, allowing four hits and two bases on balls, but he fielded his position poorly and was ineffective in watching bases. The Exeter team...

...University lacrosse team defeated the College of the City of New York last Saturday in an uninteresting game by the score of 6 goals to 2. On the defense the men were still slow in covering their opponents and allowed themselves to be drawn out too far.
