Allan Booth attempted three field goals - from 39 yards in the first quarter; from 40 yards in the second period; and from 34 yards in the final quarter. They all fell short. In the fourth quarter Pitt advanced the ball to the Presidents' 30-yard line. "Gibby Welch squirming through left tackle, had traveled 12 yards when he was thrown heavily and dropped the ball, Gallagher recovering for Washington & Jefferson." Both defenses were superb. Jap Douds was lauded as the defensive star of the game for the Presidents.
