I just took another look at the Gettysburg College website, and it lists only one game played against Shenandoah Collegiate Institute. That is their only listed game against SCI, until 1985.

According to it, SCI beat Gettysburg 6-0, and the game was played March 24, 1910, presumably at SCI.
So, while the initials on the uniforms are a match, and SCI was in Dayton, VA, where the postcard was mailed, the game was almost two months before the postcard was mailed (the postmark only clearly shows "MA" for the month, but the date is before the 20th of the month, so if the postmark was actually March, it would have been before the game was even played.
So something isn't matching up.
