Tigers Trip Crimson In Rugby Match, 3-0

The Princeton rugby team handed the Crimson its sixth straight loss Saturday, 3 to 0, in a muddy contest played on an undersized touch-football field. It was Princeton's fourth consecutive victory.

Play was even throughout the match until the final three minutes, when the Tigers crossed the goal line after a breakaway run by their scrum-half. Both teams took advantage of the gusty wind at their backs for long punts downfield, but hard tackling and an abundance of penalty kicks kept the score low. Crimson Captain Lionel Bryer, wings Bob Leet and Jack Linehan, and flyhalf Allen Hobson each played a good wet-field game, in their final match of the season.
