Both Leone and captain Nicole Rhodes noted the strong play of the Harvard keepers, Mann and junior Laura Dale, over the weekend. “I think we played well defensively,” Leone said. “There were short lapses that cost us the goals.” Last year’s Ivy League Rookie of the Year, sophomore Katherine Sheeleigh, led the Crimson?...

I chatted with Ron Ehmke at the Good Vibrations Caf; he's here celebrating his 48th birthday. He considers himself an open-minded skeptic, and he thinks America's mood right now is "pretty apocalyptic." But he hasn't come here looking for comfort. He's "come to be challenged by things that defy rationality--kind of like this campaign has defied rationality...
