...starting signal, Randolph and Claverly got away first and led for about 50 yards. They were unable to hold this lead, however, for Thayer, with a short, fast stroke, quickly caught and passed them. Randolph and Russell, who were nearest the Cambridge shore then fell a little behind, rowing a slow, clean stroke. Claverly and Mt. Auburn street were following, nearly even, about a length of open water behind Thayer. Just above the Harvard bridge, Russell and Randolph put up the stroke, and gained rapidly on Thayer, but the latter was able to sprint although it had been rowing...
...just outside left guard, the Harvard back, aided by two or three of his team-mates, had gained a few yards when Byrne dove head foremost in front of the men. In some way his head was caught so that it was bent under his chest as the players fell on him. He remained in a semi-conscious condition for some time, breathing very slowly and most of the time only by means of the constant efforts of a doctor. The physicians worked all night and managed to keep him alive until 6.35 o'clock yesterday morning...
...line. A quarterback run gained seven yards, three line plays netted 17 yards more, but Harvard was penalized for offside play, leaving the ball on West Point's 50-yard line.

A line play failed to gain, so another fake kick was attempted which L. D. Smith stopped for a 5-yard loss. An onside kick rolled by O'Flaherty and Hicks fell on the ball...

Porter was thrown for a loss. Fletcher sent a low bouncing kick which Ervin finally fell on outside on Andover's 18-yard line. Harvard then gained three first downs on five plays, Marsh being used three times and Wendell twice before time was called...
...well, securing the ball on downs. Two line plunges gained but two yards and Frothingham punted outside on Williams's 45-yard line. Williams was penalized for starting before the ball and Stevens punted over O'Flaherty's head, the ball rolling toward the Harvard goal. Three different men fell on the ball before Pratt, the Williams right end, finally captured it on Harvard's 3-yard line. On the next play J. Brooks plunged through centre for a touchdown and Peterson kicked an easy goal. The score was made in less than five minutes of play...
