RECALLING SOCCER HISTORY

The soccer season 1914-15 was as successful, if not more so, than the previous year for the Steel Workers. In every game with the exception of a few exhibition contests, the Steel Workers were pitted against the stiffest opposition available. However, the team finished winners in the American League and won the National Cup.

The games played and the results of each are as follows:
