Freshman Naomi Miller worked the ball to sophomore Keren Gudeman down the left side of the field, and down the left side of the field, and Gudeman fed junior Dana Tenser to the right of the goal. Tenser then whacked it past Black Bear goalie Jennifer Terpolilli up high for the score...
...entry in my notebook for May 18 is significant. "Contact 0805. 1 V.C. KIA..." We had been patrolling a gorge fed by a rushing stream that covered up our noise.

Strife that has fed on vengeful mythologies and minor cultural differences was succumbing, among many southern Slavs, to a universality of victimhood. Around the western Balkans, sorry droves of refugees could almost have exchanged identities as they toted a few spare relics from their past lives into banishment...
