...great photos the one image that reveals the essence of a harrowing story that took days to convey in newspapers and on radio and TV. But the cover picture of a lone firefighter kneeling to check a fire-hose connection against the background of a tree erupting in a ball of flame summed up Californians' frustration and helplessness. The Dantesque orange glow bathing the entire scene imparted a netherworld aura to the image and gave me the uncomfortable feeling that there was no escape.

In the 41st minute, co-captain Matt Hoff’s through ball into the Quakers’ penalty area was unable to find a Crimson striker. The play appeared to be over when the ball was struck straight into the waiting arms of Penn goalkeeper Ben Berg. But instead of cleanly fielding the ball, Berg dropped it. Junior Mike Fucito took advantage...
