Although not on the long end of the scores, the season was tar from a flop, as the Parsons hard- court artists played a fine brand of basketball, and only in the closing minutes of the game were they nosed out. All games were hard-fought, and by no means were Parsons players inferior to their opponents. On the negative side of the ledger, Parsons dropped single games to St. Ambrose 48-19, Knox 47-31, Columbia 37-21, and Buena Vista 36-27. The double winners over the unlucky Parsonites included Simpson 43-24, 37-35: Kirksville Osteopaths 36-30, 38-31: Culver-Stockton 31-24, 29-20, Penn 34-27, 37-355 Central 35-18, 35-295 Dubuque U. 31-22, 49-30: and divided with Wesleyan 23-22, 30-35.
