Not enough coverage is present for this subject to meet the WP:NSEASONS. All I can find is some brief coverage, with nothing substantial present (although of note, one article I found covering the Baltimore City game says that Western Maryland lost, which directly contradicts the media guide, and also says they played a set of games on the weekend of November 4th, which is not noted in the media guide https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-democratic-advocate/138409330/. Bottom line, there isn't enough to justify keeping this. Let'srun (talk) 00:19, 10 January 2024 (UTC)

  • :* Redirect or delete: Closest sign of notability I could find is to the 1891 season, their first.[https://www.chicagotribune.com/ph-ce-eagle-archive-1204-20111130-story.html] Such early history could easily fit into the modestly-sized McDaniel Green Terror football.
  • :Also note the same arguments will apply to the article for the 1892 team. AfD page[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1892_Western_Maryland_Green_Terror_football_team] Wizmut (talk) 18:56, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
