Pictured fifth from left in this photograph is Vic Davis. A Loveland Booster star, Davis played first base for the team for many years. In 1915, when no Loveland team was organized, Davis played for the Fort Collins Lambkins team. According to the 1915 Loveland Daily Herald, Davis was “a good stick artist having maintained an excellent percentage in batting during the 1914 season.”
