But it came as a surprise when, with thirteen minutes left in Friday’s Ivy League tilt against the Big Green, freshman guard Jeremy Lin took charge of the Crimson offense. With Dartmouth leading 45-41, the 6’2 combo guard reeled off ten straight points, exhibiting versatility, poise, and increasingly astute judgment on the court during his prolific stretch of play. “I really felt like I was in the flow,” Lin said, “And I felt comfortable for the first time...
