The1895 Dartmouth football team representedDartmouth College as a member of theTriangular Football League during the1895 college football season. Head coachWilliam Wurtenburg scheduled a 13-game season for 1895, a still-standing record at Dartmouth for most games played in a single year.[1] The team compiled an overall record of 7–5–1 with a mark of 2–0 in TFL play, winning the league title. The season began with a 50–0 shutout ofPhillips Exeter Academy, which was followed by a close game withHarvard. The match was hard-fought; Harvard won by a slim 4–0 margin, the closest that a Dartmouth team had gotten to beating Harvard.[2] The squad then played three smaller colleges, winning two of the games and tying the other. The team then went back-and-forth between losing and winning, falling twice toYale and once toWest Point, but defeatingMIT andBoston University. Conference opponents Williams and Amherst were defeated by a combined score of 30–5, and the team was awarded its third straight Triangular Football League championship. The season ended on a negative note, however, with a close 10–4 loss toBrown.[3][4]
