Dartmouth's all-Ivy goalie, Lyman Missimer, cut down several Crimson attacks coming out to snare crosses from the wings. With under a minute remaining in the half, Missimer grabbed a Keller Sarmiento chip with Steve Yakopec swooping in for the best chance of the half...
...grow up on the Charles, and they're seeing that turn for the first time. And freaking. And spilling over the buoys into your course. Hold your water, yell at them, and put your port oars over the buoys. Don't miss 'em, it's ten seconds, but cut it real close--this saves more time than you can imagine. Watch out for crews on your outside (you did get the inside of the turn, didn't you, squirt?) and cut across the river into the center arch, taking ten to push it home. Stay calm, oars over the buoys...

After only 15 minutes of play, Polar Bear forward Anna King cut in behind an off-balance Harvard defense and rifled a shot at Crimson netminder Barbara Mahon. Mahon managed to deflect the shot, but it sneaked under the cross bar to make it 1-0, Bowdoin...

The pair make good use of string orchestration to provide a backdrop for Oates' mellow voice, echoed by a Hall falsetto. But this is typical Hall and Oates stuff, basically no different from the music on albums like Bigger than Both of Us or the less-successful Beauty on a Back Street. What distinguishes Along the Red Ledge as a worthwhile contribution to current pop music is the work that comes alive on the second side...
