About Norman Stephen
Lived 1865 – 1948 (aged 83). Norman Stephen was a British cricketer.
Norman Kenneth Stephen (24 June 1865 – 4 July 1948) was a Scottish cricketer who played first-class cricket in four matches for Cambridge University in 1887. He was born at Kinloss, Moray, Scotland and died at Swiss Cottage, London.
Stephen was educated at Fettes College and Trinity College, Cambridge. He was an outstanding scholar, taking a double first in classics, and winning a succession of prizes and scholarships: the Porson Prize in 1885 and 1886, the Powis medal in 1886 and 1887, the Craven scholarship in 1887 and the Chancellor's Gold Medal in 1888. He continued to take wickets in his other matches across the next month, but had dropped out of the Cambridge team before the University Match against Oxford University and therefore did not win a Blue.
