The game was play ed at Lovisville. In the opening quarter Louis ville was penalized, the touch down of Urwin was nullified. The game was played to a tieless score at half time. In the third quarter the Lions registered when after the kickoff to the Rockets, Louisville held their opponent for downs. The Lions worked the ball across the field to the twenty yard strip, where Alfrey was able to dodge the Rocket tacklers to run through to pay dirt. The point was good and the score was 7 to 0 for the Lions. In the fourth quarter both teams scored. For Louisville, Urwin secured the ball in mid field and raced to the Rockets goal to score standing up. The try for point was no good and Louisville led 13 to 0. Syracuse tailed in the last quarter when they worked the ball across the field to score and the try for point was good, making the score 13 to 7. Louisville threatened in the dying moments of the game but ran out of gas and time as the game ended.
