Princeton's goal was made after a drop kick by Haxall a distance of 115 feet. The press account of the game contains the following:

When the Princeton man caught the ball Hull of Yale choked him with great ardor. Other Princeton men and other Yale men came up and took a hand in it, and the impulse of the moment, changing sides, affected a Princeton man, who slugged a Yale man in the eye. The Yale man, after a few words, sat up, rubbed his eye, got on his feet and resumed the game. He seemed to cherish no resentment.
