There is a wealth of material to choose from, but the very fact of there being so many players of almost equal merit makes the task all the harder. The season just closed has been a remarkable one in the history of interscholastic football both in New York and Brooklyn, and the contest for the championship of both cities has been a most stubborn one. The teams have shown marked improvement in their knowledge of the game and the variety and execution of their plays, and the boys have shown an aptitude for the sport that gives great promise for the future. The team selected is a remarkably heavy one, and under proper coaching and training would undoubtedly put up a magnificent game against any college eleven. Hasbrouck of Berkeley School is undoubtedly entitled to the position of left end. He weighs 177 pounds, is a very fast runner, a sure tackler, and strong at breaking up interference. He played on the '93, '94, and '95 teams, and understands his position thoroughly. He gets down the field under kicks with remarkable speed, and rarely, if ever, misses a tackle. He is not liable to be easily hurt, and only once during the season has he been injured painfully, his injury consisting of the dislocation of a shoulder. He captained the Berkeley team this year, and would undoubtedly have turned out a far stronger team had he not been hampered by outside influences.
