...Harvard baseball team’s scheduled game at Holy Cross was postponed yesterday due to the inclement weather in the Boston area, and no make-up date has been announced. Despite its inactivity, though, the Harvard baseball team still received some good news. The Ivy League office honored Crimson hurlers Shawn Haviland and Adam Cole with two of its weekly awards. Haviland, the sophomore ace, was named Pitcher of the Week on the strength of his 11 1/3 innings without allowing an earned run. After two stellar relief outings over spring break in Florida, Haviland twirled a complete-game...
...Gold Felsburg Memorial Tournament. In a sport where essentially every series is played as a doubleheader, consistency will be crucial as the team approaches Ivy play. Boston College and Boston University are two of the remaining five non-conference opponents on the Crimson’s schedule. Holy Cross, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island are the only other non-Ivy teams Harvard will face. The contests with the Terriers will also mark the Crimson’s last preparation before opening up Ivy League play this weekend. Harvard travels to Columbia and Cornell this weekend. Both the Lions...
...poor on both sides are united by a struggle just to survive what most Americans can barely imagine. Mothers in the rural El Paso outpost of Revolucion cross into Juarez to buy methyl parathion, a pesticide so lethal it is banned in the U.S. They sprinkle it around their shanties, and it kills the roaches and tarantulas for a year. But their children play in the dust and dirt, and when they get sick, their parents take them to Juarez doctors, who are cheaper and stay open into the night. If the children die, they are buried across the border...
...lucrative as the drug-smuggling business is, the people-smuggling cartels are prospering as well. The more the U.S. cracks down on illegal immigration, the more expensive crossing becomes. The border patrol has a mission impossible. No matter how many surveillance cameras and motion detectors it installs, still the immigrants come. It's harder to cross and easier to die trying. In some ways it's the lucky ones, say the border agents, who get caught. "Everything out here will either bite you, burn you or arrest you," says the Rev. Robin Hoover of the First Christian Church in Tucson...
...posted 12 goals and two assists for 14 points on the season, second on the team to junior Evan Calvert. “I don’t ever remember games when he didn’t score,” said Anderson after a win against Holy Cross earlier in the season. “It’s just more making sure he’s taking high-percentage shots, he’s a great physical athlete.” Cohen looks to continue the offensive charge this weekend at home versus Cornell. A win would help...
