There were three known games this year that involved American colleges. This included Wisconsin's Carroll College, who played two exhibitions against the Waukesha Town Team in Waukesha, Wisconsin, the Waukesha team and Carroll College exchanged a win and loss.[1] Additionally, Connecticut's Trinity College had an intra-university scrimmage between its class of 1869 and its class of 1870.
