Football Grits Out 13-6 Win

After Princeton accumulated a grand total of minus 11 yards on its next drive, it punted, and the Crimson who took over on its own 46.

The first play was a reverse to senior wide receiver Terence Patterson that went for seven yards thanks to a Wilford block that let Patterson get to the outside. Menick ran for four yards, but that play was called back on a Harvard holding penalty.

Wilford then connected with freshman wide receiver Carl Morris for a 14-yard gain for a first down followed by an eight-yard hookup with tight end captain Chris Eitzmann.

After a fumbled snap, Wilford found Eitzmann again at the Princeton 18-yard line for another first down.

Although Harvard found the red zone on this drive, the Crimson couldn't make any progress there with Menick running for no gain on first down, Wilford passing incomplete on second down, and Wilford scrambling for two yards on third down.

Giampaolo came in for the second time in the first quarter, again with the wind behind him, to kick a 33-yard field goal.

On the next possession, Princeton moved down the field, helped by a timely Harvard personal foul to get its first points of the game.

Crenshaw found Wendler for a 15-yard gain on the drive's opening play. After an incompletion, Crenshaw hit Wendler for a two-yard pass to the Princeton 35-yard line.
