...practiced daily at Hamilton Park, the number of players decreased to fifteen. But the best players were the ones to continue in practice, and a lacrosse twelve of a good deal of merit was organized. The first game was played on May 1st at Princeton, and resulted in a defeat for Yale of four goals to nothing. Of the men that compose the team, eight are from '87, two from Sheff., one from '88, and one from the Law School. Meacham, '87, who played on the University team in his freshman year and was captain of his class team...
...varsity nine has met with its first defeat at the hands of a college nine, a defeat that stands out clearly against the overwhelming victories that it has been the fortune of the nine to gain. There is one thing that makes the contrast more striking, and that is expressed in one word - "professionalism." Hitherto we have been matched against teams that have had so little merit that our nine has been able to gain little from the contests. Is this the practice that will enable Harvard to play a game of base-ball that shall be worthy the name...
...race with Harvard this year it will not be for lack of work and professional coaching. Last year the crew had only amateur instruction, and not so much of that as they needed, while their rivals certainly enjoyed much professional advice, no matter how they got it.

So, if they don't have the genuine English stroke this year the blues never will How that will compare with Harvard's waterman's stroke we shall know when...

It has taken advantage of this opportunity to show itself equal to anything that is expected of it at so early a season. The game of Saturday brought out admirable playing on both sides, and displayed qualities in our men that augur well for the success of the team in the approaching cricket season. We can only...
...defeated freshmen we can only say that to defeat Yale they must play a far better game than they played with the Latin School. They need to give hand and head to their practice, which last Saturday seemed to lack both, and every moment possible must be used. Eighty-nine has good material, and ought to have a good nine. But any team, to be successful, must have its members working together. In this respect, we think the freshman nine has been signally lacking...
