Junior back Liz Sarles, who already had a goal and an assist, blocked the Huskies clearing attempt, and Ingram found the loose ball floating dangerously close to the goal...
...hours or so together during the average school week and then band together as, perhaps, the only (mostly) fair-skinned, English speaking people in some of the exotic places they visit. To avoid conflict, they realize certain compromises must be made. The first is that they avoid getting too close to one another, although they are very often the best of friends to the point where, if you see one Krok, you can count on seeing two. The second is that they must all be friends with every other member, no exceptions. And so self-described "diva" Jason McNeely still...

But the honest truth is that the location and accessibility of dining halls close to the Yard becomes a serious issue when rushing from one hourly to the next.

Interhouse dining bans could be rotated on a regular schedule. Dining Services should coordinate a system wherein convenient dining halls close down to interhouse visitors on an alternating basis.
