Glorious 1-9 T h e Freshman stood at the river banks, T h e water was dark and cold, O n the other side stood the S O P H O M O R E ranks, Daring, dauntless, bold.
Tenacious 2 - 0 It is not the critic w h o counts; not the m a n w h o points out h o w the strong m a n stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. T h e credit belongs to the m a n w h o is actually in the arena, w h o s e face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; w h o strives valiantly; w h o errs, w h o c o m e s short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but w h o does actually strive to do the deeds; w h o k n o w s great enthusiasms, the great devotions; w h o spends himself in a worthy cause; w h o at the best k n o w s in the end the triumph of high achievement, and w h o at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls w h o neither k n o w victory nor defeat.

"The M a n in the Arena" speech by Theodore Roosevelt. Given to each Eve n Year Pull T e a m
A shot rang out, the pull was on, It w a s sad as sad could be. T h e Freshman looked pale, thin and wan, T h e S O P H O M O R E S happy and free. T h e Freshman pulled as freshman should, But soon it could bee seen. T h e y stood no chance against the strength, O f Glorious 19. There was a splash, the Freshman class; Tis far to sad to state, H a d gone into the river, At a very rapid rate. There little Freshman, don't you cry, Y o u will be a S O P H O M O R E by and by. T h e River m a y s o m e of your spirits redeem But you'll never be as good as Old 19. P o e m by 1919 Pull T e a m , called Glorious 1-9. 100 years later, the 2019 Pull team wins the 119th pull with the n a m e Glorious 1-9. Congrats to 1-9 for ripping 54'9" of rope! 71
