Play began with Wesleyan in possession of the ball. They began strongly, using their heavy line to advantage. In less than two minutes after play began, however, Hallowell secured the ball on a fumble, and carried it the full half length of the field, scoring a touch-down; goal. Score...
...centre and around the ends; both plans failed, and the ball came to Harvard again. The line opened up a good hole, and Upton gained 12 yards; then the ball was given to Lake, and he made one of the longest and best rushes of the game, scoring a touch-down; goal. Score 21-0. The visitors now settled down to work, and during the next twenty minutes played a stiff game.

...through the line but again the ball went to '94 on a fumble. Ninety-four punted and '93, by several short rushes, brought the ball back nearly to the line.

The ball was in '94's territory when time was called. Final score...
Harvard began the second half with a rush, and soon scored a touch-down through good rushing by Lee and Sherwin; Corbett kicked the goal. Score. 48-0. Of the rest of the half the less said of the work of Harvard the better. For twenty minutes the play was in Harvard's territory. Bowdoin used her heavy rush line effectively, and by sheer weight forced the ball down to Harvard's 12 yard line. Here W. Hilton fumbled the ball, and Newell was on it like a flash; scrambling to his feet he threw...
