As the first overtime began, the cheering faithful ripped off their shirts and began yelling, heckling, and shouting as only the most ardent of fans could. It’s a sign of change: a women’s team—Columbia was the victim on Saturday—can be heckled the same as its men’s counterpart, and a band of naked men will get rowdy and rush...
