...against Vermont.The aforementioned 61-48 win at Albany with two starters out was another strong road performance.It’s hard to fault the Crimson for laying an egg at BC, and the losses to BU and Central Connecticut were not particularly embarrassing. That leaves the 67-56 defeat at Lehigh. It’s fair to say that Harvard wishes it could have that one back. If this Crimson squad is lucky enough to flirt with the school-record 19 win mark, that might be a contest that Harvard could sorely regret.Grade: BLOOKING AHEADWith a matchup with Southern...

...from different generations, from different social classes and from opposing political parties. Their 1992 face-off wasn't exactly tea and sympathy: Bush once called Clinton a "bozo," and Clinton usually referred to his rival as "Old Bush." The 10 years that followed weren't much better. The 1992 defeat hit Bush so hard that friends say he needed half a decade to get over it, and an aide recalls that some of Clinton's angriest private moments during his impeachment were rants directed not at independent counsel Ken Starr but at the Bush family's aura of privilege...

It’s been a long, ugly December for the Harvard women’s basketball team, and it got even uglier in a low-scoring slugfest against Marist on Saturday. The Crimson netted just 39 points in its sixth consecutive loss, a 44-39 defeat to the Red Foxes in Poughkeepsie, N.Y. Freshman guard Emily Tay helped Harvard (2-7) fight back from a 12-point second half deficit to claim a two-point lead with 3:49 remaining, but the Crimson scored just two points in the final four minutes and surrendered yet another road game late...

...have heard your disagreement, and I know how deeply it is felt. Yet now there are only two options before our country-victory or defeat,? he said, raising the palm of one hand and then the other, to portray the choice. ?And the need for victory is larger than any president or political party, because the security of our people is in the balance. I don't expect you to support everything I do, but tonight I have a request: Do not give in to despair, and do not give up on this fight for freedom...
