I Fall Athletics-1901 .25 QGTBALL has been, is, and, I hope, ever shall be the leading branch of athletics in our College. In past years football teams have been pro- duced which have nobly defended the athletic reputation of Old St. Iohn's, and this yearfs team has gallantly followed in the footsteps of such predeF cessors. Every man entered into the sport with that To-do-or-to-die spirit, and this fact in itself seemed to predict a successful season. I - 'Tis true, we lost the opening game to the United States Naval Academy Team, but I really do believe that it is to this defeat that we owe the success that attended us during the remainder of the season, for it banished all those preconceived notions that had arisen concerning the strength of our team. We realized that we had plenty of hard practice before usvbefore we could produce a winning team, so our boys set to work with redoubled energy. What was the result? Look at our scores against Gallaudet and Georgetown. VV e only tied them, I must acknowledge, but they were gamesters in playing with whom not to have lost is to have won a great deal. Georgetown had defeated the University of Virginia, who were the recog- nized champions of the South, so in tieing the former we had a just claim to an equal share to the honors of that position. During the entire season we lost but two games-one to the Navy and one to Swathmore. The defeat inflicted upon us by the latter team, I really attribute' to the over-confidence that seems to always take possession of our men soon after winning a few victories. I-Iowever, this defeat, like our first, proved to be a bless- ing in disguise, for we won all the remaining games except the one with I-Iopkins, and in that we appeared to be the victims of circumstances. I 1 - G11 'Elle Wl'1Ol6, 'Elle football SCELSO11 of IQOI-IQO2 Was One Of the m'r3St Successful in the history of our College, for, aside from our many victories, Mr. Casper VVhitney has publicly declared that we have the unique distinction fof keeping our athletics clean.
