1886 Princeton football team cabinet photo

  The 1886 Princeton Tigers ended up going 7-0-1 and was named co- champions with Yale.  Actually the results of that last game were controversial because Yale was up in the final game but it was called a tie due to lack of sunlight.  Notables on the team include a young Knowlton “snake” Ames and Hector Cowan.  Henry Savage was the captain that year.
