A brilliant 35 yard penalty kick with two minutes left to play by Princeton's John Cotter gave the visiting Tiger rugby squad the three points it needed to tie up the game and resulted in the second consecutive deadlock of the 1949 Harvard Princeton series. This time the final score was 3 to 3. In Bermuda it had been 0-0.
The one round preliminary between the respective J.V. teams resulted in an 8 to 0 win by the Tiger second stringers.
Davis Scores
Harvard's lone touch (worth three points) came after a protracted second half scuffle in the end zone which ended as giant Crimson forward Eddie Davis fell on the ball for the score. Davis's chief assistant on the scoring play was Al Green, the man who had kicked the ball into the end zone.
The conversion attempt had to be made form what was virtually an impossible angle and Hollis French's kick fell wide of the mark.
