This caused the Crimson to rush to look for an open shot and disrupted the flow off the offense.“We had some easy looks at the rim, and I thought we had some good shots early on, but I think...

"Tomorrow's vote is going to be the only vote," warned Frist aide Bob Stevenson...
...Green certainly hasn’t forgotten its season-opening drubbing at Bright, and both sides’ returning players surely remember that last year yielded a split of one-goal games. Reese’s tally won the first, 2-1, with 58 seconds left on the clock in Cambridge, and Harvard tied the second in Hanover, N.H. with 74 seconds remaining, only to lose in overtime. “It’s going to be a battle,” Donato said. “But we’re expecting to be ready...
