...first ever in the Harvard women’s program. The result left the two teams bunched amid a handful of teams atop the ECAC standings as they entered the stretch run of the conference schedule. Both squads generated a fair share of looks at the net throughout the contest, but the dueling goaltenders were equal to the challenge, each pitching shutouts for 65 minutes. On the Harvard side, it was a fresh face between the pipes, with freshman Brittany Martin starting in place of concussed regular Ali Boe. Martin stopped 32 shots on the night, including five during...
...have netted just one victory since mid-November, a string of 17 games. Meanwhile, Harvard sits in a fourth-place tie with Dartmouth in the ECAC standings, and just six league games remain before the postseason tournament.

While there is evidence that the rest of the league was still unsure of the 6’1 guard’s offensive abilities heading into last Saturday, an 8-of-10 performance from downtown against...
...This week, however, Louisiana's lieutenant governor Mitch Landrieu-a Democrat whose father served two terms as mayor of New Orleans-told supporters privately that he would return home from Baton Rouge to contest Nagin. That's bad news for Nagin because the Landrieus-including both Mitch and his sister, U.S. Senator Mary Landrieu-have built a formidable political dynasty in Orleans Parish since the 1970s when Moon Landrieu served as the city's desegregationist mayor. During the aftermath of Katrina, while the mayor was struggling with the woes inside the Superdome, Mitch was acting like a macho...
