But a trade war between the U.S. and China?with each side taking punitive, protectionist steps to shut out the other's products, services and investments?poses a real danger to the world's biggest economy (the U.S.) and the world's fastest-growing economy (China).

The second game was similar to the first. After trading points to start the game, Harvard pulled ahead 12-11 on a back-row kill from Weitzen, who led the team with nine...
