Burton Shipley, former quarterback and future basketball coach, was an assistant coach. The only losses came at Yale and against Virginia Tech. Maryland led Yale, 14–12, at halftime, but a referee ruled incomplete a drop kick that Byrd claimed was good by a "country mile". Yale won the game, 16–14. Mainly for his performance against Yale and Penn, end Bill "Zeke" Supplee was named an All-American by the Associated Press. He was the first Maryland player honored as such.David Ungrady, Tales from the Maryland Terrapins, 2003, p. 26, Sports Publishing LLC.
