| Description | According to the Kansas City Times, April 28, 1927, article titled "First Team a Knockout: Old Timers Recall Antelopes' Debut here in 1866," and online sources, the third game of a series between the Antelopes of KC and the Pomeroys of Atchison, was played in KC Aug. 12, 1866. The Atchison team was named after a prominent KS politician. It lost this game 48-28. Atchison KS (1860 pop. about 2600, 1870 pop. about 7000) is about 50 miles NW of Kansas City KS and in the NE corner of the state. We do not know whether these early games were the first played in Kansas. Clubs had also formed n Fort Leavenworth and Fort Scott in 1866, but we don't yet know the founding dates of those clubs. |
