In a year that featured a number of team struggles for Harvard (5-12, 2-3 Ivy), its all-star captains led a three-man charge to the championships—with sophomore Corey Jantzen completing the trio—finishing 41st in the nation...

She said then, "Justice O'Connor has often been cited as saying that a wise old man and wise old woman will reach the same conclusion in deciding cases. I am also not so sure that I agree with the statement ...
