...said. “The score, we knew we couldn’t come back, but it’s about each individual possession and making stops and showing that you’re not going to give up.”It was Harvard’s worst defeat since it opened the 1989-90 season at Duke and suffered a 130-54 drubbing at the hands of the Blue Devils.

A 15th-minute goal from Penn’s Jessica Fuccello—her 11th goal of the season—coupled with an impressive defensive display was enough to defeat Harvard in a match of very few chances.

...Islam - and that in many different stripes of tradition, conservatism and modernity. Pakistan and its military leaders were key allies of the U.S., supporting the mujaheddin war in Afghanistan against the Soviet Union after Moscow invaded and occupied that country. That Afghan war, which ended with the Soviet defeat in 1989, assumed a religious nature in the Islamic world and, as it came to a close, fostered the rise of Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda and the Taliban regime that eventually took over most of Afghanistan.
