Acadia Seniors Beat Engineers, Snow to Win

“The Seniors captured the first Interclass Championship of the year when they defeated the Engineers by a score of 2 to 1 in the finals of the soccer league. Particular interest was taken in this game as these same teams had played off for the title in 1928, the Engineers winning then by 1 to 0. The game was played under difficulties, the field being covered with two or three inches of snow, following the first snow storm of the year....the game produced some good soccer.” (Acadia Athenaeum, December 1929, 45).
