matched although dur ing the major part of the game lehigh had the ball in stevens territory the team work of both clubs was fine lehigh doing the better only much of its tipping was wild when their goal was being hard pressed several stevens men would invariably be bunched close in at goal in this way many of lehigh's shots were stopped the pace set from the beginning was very fast and was kept up throughout the game towards the close the play became furious all of lehigh's men played fine lacrosse and it is hard to pick out the players who did the best work penningion in goal made some beautiful stops while enscoe and miller on the defense and bartles merriman and baldwin on the attack distinguished themselves for stevens lofio put up a fine game in goal while brune and weichert probably did the best in the field the spectators were kept in a constant state of excitement and they gave vent to their feelings in cheering and singing the game was called at 3.35 o'clock with lehigh attacking the east goal on the face-off the ball went to enscoe who returned it to the other end of the field the ball was tipped from shriver to merriman to baldwin who shot the first goal in
