Princeton earned again its reputation for courage and refusal to accept defeat until the final whistle few, and, in the last three minutes of play, showed an attack and spirit, undaunted by the shadow of defeat, and almost successful in clutching the prize of victory. Ink a game that was fierce and clean-cut from start to finish Princeton has a right to finish Princeton has a right to say of its team that its "head is bloody but unbowed...
