Describing the first half with “a word I can’t use in print,” the 25-year veteran coach sent out a second-half team humbled and ready to establish itself as the team to beat in the Ivy League. Harvard (12-8, 5-1 Ivy) led the sorry Bears (1-19, 0-6) by only four at halftime before pulling away in the second half, turning an initially sloppy effort into a 70-49 laugher at Lavietes Pavilion...

McCain has both cemented his position as the Republican front-runner, and failed to win the support of much of his party's conservative base.
