Teams representing Washington &

team has won three of the games. all

For some unexplained reason the teams
did not play again until 1902, when the
EirginianS suffered their third G@feht
this time by the score OF l7-H. After
this victory, which was the last for the
Varsity the teams did not play again
until 1913 when the great w. & l.. team
