...Crimson netmen are blessed with exceptional depth in their lineup this year. Harvard's six starters--Sands, Grossman, junior Captain Adam Beren, junior Mike Turner, sophomore Rob Loud and senior Alex Seaver--are backed up by agile raquetmen in sophomore Rob Wheeler and highly touted freshman Dave Beckman...
...bring together old captains and coaches. Spotted in the stands of Boldgett Pool during the Harvard men's blowout of Princeton University recently were ex-captains DICKIE GREER '90 and GEOFF SEELIN '81.

He said that his immediate reaction to Walsh's decision was one of surprise, attributing most of her comments to "sour grapes...
