DARTMOUTH'S FIRST DEFEAT
FEBRUARY 1906

Dartmouth suffered its first defeat of the season at the hands of Colgate in Hanover, Saturday, January 27. Weakened by several injured men, Dartmouth played in the poorest form of the year and was outplayed by the visitors. Colgate was superior in shooting and covering, and easily broke up Dartmouth's team-work. Runge was the star of the game, scoring over twenty points for Colgate and converting Dartmouth's fouls into points with remarkable regularity and precision. The score was 32 to 27.

DARTMOUTH 48—BROWN 19

Dartmouth played in its best form against Brown in the Bissell Gymnasium, Saturday evening, February 3, and defeated the Providence team by the decisive score of 48 to 19. Dartmouth's team-work was superior, and the visitors, who had little themselves, were unable to break it up. Russ was the star of the game, scoring twenty points, while Captain McGrail's work was fast and reliable. Captain Pryor of Brown caged the ball twice from an unusual distance.
