...weight and experience the Harvard team did no more than hold its own, and at no time seriously threatened West Point's goal. During both halves the play was in mid-field, and neither side could gain consistently. West Point made first down only once, on a fake kick, and Harvard's total gain by rushes, aside from Kernan's run, amounted to less than thirty-five yards. In only one respect, punting, did Harvard have the advantage. A total lack of team play was the chief of Harvard's many faults, and this was so apparent that it would...
...first half was evenly contested, but uninteresting. After Harvard's kick-off Daly punted to Kernan who ran the ball, from Harvard's 25 yard line to midfield. Two plunges gained five yards, but after a fumble Kernan was forced to punt. Daly caught it on West Point's five yard line. Failing to gain, West Point punted to the 50 yard line.

After three short plunges by Ristine and Kernan, Matthews...

On the next play Harvard stopped Columbia's hurdling formation without gain, and Morley punted. The ball rolled over Harvard's goal line and on the kick-out Kernan punted 70 yards. Morley returned the punt on the next play. Kernan punted again. Failing to gain, Morley fell back to punt, but the pass went over his head and rolled to the 35 yard line. On the next play the ball was fumbled, and Motley secured it. Three...
