...biggest reason for this is the return of junior goalie Ali Brewer, a Second-Team All-ECAC selection who finished second in GAA with a 1.65 average. The netminder, who was the ECAC Tournament MVP, should be even more untouchable this year with the return of junior All-Ivy defender Tamra Jones and sophomore Tara Mounsey...
...workshop and get training on sexual harassment. Employees can choose among eight "resource councils"--groups representing gays, women and Native Americans, among others. The company sets aside a specific share of purchases each year for minority-owned firms (what conservatives like the Coorses usually call--gulp--quotas).

Brewer and Clemont's capricious interplay, along with the matching figures in the winds, added a touch of lightheartedness to contrast with the introspective mood of the Credo...
