Jordan's penetration should also leave senior guard Matt Langel open for plenty of shots from beyond the arc. Langel (11.3 ppg, .429 three-point percentage) earned All-Ivy honorable mention with his steady shooting and strong court sense. At 6'5, Langel might have to spend some minutes at swingman until Coach Fran Dunphy finds a frontcourt combination he likes...
...past years, the Crimson backcourt relied on penetration by Hill, mostly from the top of the arc, to free up big shooters like Beam and Clemente on the wings. A gunner with the ability to drive like Merchant or junior-college transfer Bryan Parker could add a dimension Harvard hasn't seen since the days of Mike Scott...
...begins my education by showing me dry-fly casting on a path above the river. Move the arm, not the wrist; keep the arc of the cast between 2 and 10 o'clock. But today the fish we are going for, whitefish and cutthroats, are loitering on the bottom. So we will wet cast and roll cast instead, with little weights on the line and flies that look like nymphs. Roll casting requires less arm movement. You swing out the line upriver and let it drift down in a natural motion. I find I'm not half bad at this...
...study the latticework creases in his neck. After a few casts, he hooks a female cutthroat that shimmers gold and silver as it resists and bends his rod into a bow, like the Zen archer's. When he pulls in the fish, it wriggles under the arc of the bow before he moves it toward his hand. The trout looks up at him in desperate wonder. He reaches for its mouth and sets it free...

Krok showmanship comes through even in auditions; between numbers in any concert, the Kroks always clasp their hands together in front of them. As Hicks makes an announcement to the auditioners, the arc of singers behind him, by instinct, all clasp their hands in the familiar pose. Each night of auditions, the numbers get smaller and smaller and eventually a few of these nervous strangers will be deemed worthy to be whisked into the 53-year association of singers...
