University of San Francisco Athletics

The snarling Wolves of Nevada were surprised and stunned by the University of San Francisco when the Fog tallied a touchdown at Mackay Field before one minute of the first quarter had passed, and then went on to win 20 to 13.

Kleckner's whip-like pass to Thomas for 35 yards scored after the vastly improved Chilberg had intercepted a pass and returned it to the Wolves' 40 yard line. Kleckner, Thomas, Warford and Horgan alternated in carrying the ball to Nevada's 16 yard line as the first quarter ended. Warford skirted right end for the second tally. Warford added another touchdown in the fourth quarter as he dove straight over center from the two yard mark, where the Gray Fog had moved on a sustained attack from its own 19 yard line.

Nevada scored in the second period when Guffrey reversed right for ten yards and the Wolves' first score. Late in the fourth quarter after Nevada returned a punt from midfield to San Francisco's 24 yard line, the Sagehens scored their last touchdown on a series of end runs and line bucks. This was the first game in which Coach Needles opened up his offense and it proved to be as powerful as the concrete line defense shown in the Gael game. Carey, Ososke, Higuera and Chilberg succeeded in smothering line thrusts. Bareilles was a consistent gainer in the backfield (TheIgnatian).
