In a precedent-shattering scoring rampage, the varsity soccer team overwhelmed Columbia, 7 to 3, Saturday in New York. Both ends of the final score were equally remarkable; the Crimson has neither tallied seven times nor given up three goals in more than two years.

Seamus Malin led the onslaught with four goals in a game that was almost as wacky as the football contest. Morningside Heights Field had a baseball diamond, complete with rock-hard infield, at each end, and a Little League football field ran across the middle.

The field was as hard to find as it was to play on. The Crimson walked a half mile through New York in soccer uniforms trying to locate it.

Columbia challenged only once, after The Crimson had built up a 2-0 lead in the second quarter. Two quick Lion goals the game, but the varsity rallied for 3-2 lead at intermission.

One of Malin's second-half goals was meant to be a pass to Tadhg Sweeney, about the ball bounced over Columbia Stew Witt's head for a score. Malin notched another on a mis-kick that drew Witt out onto the treacherous clay, where he fell as the ball rolled by.

Other goals were scored by Sweeney, Al Chang, and Teddy Wendell. Fullbacks Tim Morgan and Sandy Cortesi had an inexplicably bad day on defense.
