Saturday’s win over Columbia kept Harvard from duplicating its 12-15, 4-10 Ivy finish from three years ago, but the parallels between the two seasons remained undeniable. The 2002-03 team had a strong core of upperclassmen, led by captain Brady Merchant, Pat Harvey and Elliot Prasse-Freeman, who expected to lead Harvard into competition for the league title, much as captain Matt Stehle, Brian Cusworth and Mike Beal formed the nucleus of the 2005-06 team, the preseason pick to finish second in the league. Both squads got off to strong starts, going...

...researchers could also tell that Kennewick Man had been buried parallel to the Columbia, with his left side toward the water: the bones were abraded on that side by water that eroded the bank and eventually dumped him out. It probably happened no more than six months before he was discovered, says team member Thomas Stafford, a research geochemist based in Lafayette, Colo. "It wouldn't have been as much as a year," he says. "The bones would have been more widely dispersed...
...deliberate burial makes it especially frustrating for scientists that the Corps in 1998 dumped hundreds of tons of boulders, dirt and sand on the discovery site - officially as part of a project to combat erosion along the Columbia River, although some scientists suspect it was also to avoid further conflict with the local tribes. Kennewick Man's actual burial pit had already been washed away by the time Stafford visited the site in December 1997, but a careful survey might have turned up artifacts that could have been buried with him. And if his was part of a larger burial...
