...speed and agility, Joo—who teammates said went by her last name on the field—played the back position on the team. In that capacity, Joo handled offense, scoring “more than a few times,” according to Aubrey M. Chamberlain ’10, who played on the rugby team with Joo last year...
...Travis Chamberlain, 30, shares this sincerity. I met him halfway through the protest march, where Columbia Boulevard starts to sag toward the Columbia River. Tall and broad-shouldered, he was leaning against a stone wall, filming the protesters - for Mayo, he said - with a small Taiwanese Aiptek HD camera.
