Game summaries

Coaches Anderson and Malone in 1919.

Games were won and lost by a nose with the forward pass being a constant struggle for the Stormy Petrels. The season, despite heavy losses, put Oglethorpe on the map through their athletic prowess and gentlemanly conduct, which set Oglethorpe up for membership in the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association (SIAA) after the following year, and the difficult schedule also prepared them for their tough opponents in years to come. The season was especially tough due to the lack of home games. The closest game Oglethorpe played to home was at Mercer University. Throughout the season the team traveled over 3,000 miles, and played in Tennessee, Georgia, South Carolina, and Florida. Everett Strupper was the team's backfield coach.[1]

Personnel

The season marked the third with Frank B. Anderson, who hired Kirby Malone as an assistant for the year. Cecil Lemon was the team captain.
