I have the NDAC 1914 Agassiz published by the class of 1914. On October 5, 1912 or possibly 1913 it says the first game ever was played at Dacotah Field. It must have been on the parade ground south of Churchill Hall and east of the union.
"Our first game was played on October 5th with the Wahpeton Indians (bad name I know) resulting in an overwhelming victory for us. When the dust had cleared, the score stood 123-0 in our (AC) favor. This was also the first game played on the Dacotah Field and nobly did the boys respond to make it a memorable one."
Does anybody know if this is 1912 or 13?
Oh yea, that year the Aggies (I think it was the Aggies, although they never mention a nickname only "The AC") went 5-1 only allowing 6 pts: Fargo College 3 pts and und 3 pts.
