...season, the Harvard men’s basketball team had two sure things, a couple of uncertainties, and one huge void.While the Crimson boasted the strongest returning frontcourt in the league, the guard spots were left cloudy with the graduation of shooting guard Kevin Rogus and point guard Dave Giovacchini. Junior Jim Goffredo was set to fill in for Rogus at the two. The one, however, was a different matter. Versatile senior Mike Beal, originally recruited to play small forward, was expected to handle much of the duty of bringing the ball up the court as the two freshman point...
...football game: Mickey Mantle and Sandy Koufax were always on the agenda until we reached a certain exit. Then, and only then, would we transition into our weekly airing of grievances, which inevitably started and finished with the litany of no-name, pre-Manning, post-Simms Giants quarterbacks (Dave Brown was the worst).Of course, college changed the dynamic of our relationship. The dinner table conversations we’d always shared disappeared, as did most chances to catch a game together. But calls home always began and ended with the Yankees or the Giants, and no matter...
...races in the meet. Sophomore Pat Quinn helped Harvard grab key points in that meet with a second-place finish, upsetting Princeton’s Will Reinhart and lighting a fire under the Crimson swimmers. Yet, the big performance of the day came from co-captain Dave Cromwell, who set a pool record in the 200-yard backstroke. “After our loss to Columbia earlier in the year, we wanted to make sure that we were still at the top of the league,” co-captain Bill Cocks said. “This meet proved that...
...Though the Harvard men’s volleyball team came into 2006 as favorites to win the reformed Hay Division after capturing the Sweeney Division in the spring of 2005, a spate of injuries and a slow start resulted in a disappointing fourth-place finish for the Crimson. Junior Dave Fitz, Harvard’s only setter with significant collegiate playing experience, suffered an ankle bone bruise on the opening weekend of the season and missed five weeks. Coupled with co-captain Seamus McKiernan’s nagging shoulder problems, Fitz’s injury prevented the Crimson offense from...
...Down the stretch, McKiernan's teammates looked to the co-captain with the match on the line. And more often than not, he delivered. "You know if you set Seamus the ball, fifty to sixty percent of the time, he's going to kill it," junior Dave Fitz said. "For me, as a setter, that's a great safety net to have." With the graduation of McKiernan, rising sophomore Brady Weissbourd will look to fill the void at middle hitter. The rookie showed flashes of brilliance in 2006, finishing the season with a .404 hitting percentage--good enough for eighth...
