...last matchup with Yale, an 88-78 loss at Lavietes Pavilion in which the shooting guard miss seven of 10 shots. In that game, Goffredo was hounded by defensive stopper Casey Hughes, an athletic 6’5, 200-pound forward who used his superior length and quickness to contest every Goffredo jumper. But Hughes was in shirt-and-tie Saturday night, sidelined by a fractured foot, and Goffredo was getting open shots. They just weren’t falling...
Business interests, of course, play a role. Once the general-election choices are locked in, trial lawyers will have fallen in love with a Democrat, just as oilmen will find true romance with a Republican.

It was the longest game in NCAA women?...
...advantage to pave the way for the team’s almost unstoppable Olympians. Vaillancourt put up her first score of the night on a power play just 46 seconds later and would go on to score three more times that period. Chu added two tallies to finish the contest with three goals and two assists, while Cahow had five assists to her name. Sophomore defender Kati Vaughn finished with three helpers. In a game in which Cornell only managed 12 shots on net, nine of those were taken in the first period as the Big Red kept the Crimson...
