Notes (historical):
Female students were offered only intramural (inter-class) sports at that time. The 1914 yearbook described Women's Basketball: "Our game is a silent one; the whistle is not used, and the play is stopped by the cry of 'Foul,' or clap of the hands on the part of the referee. It is our aim to have no accidents, to teach the players self-control, cheerful losing, and absence of all antagonism during or after the game."
