...much better job limiting their ability to get easy offense,” said Harvard coach Ted Donato ’91. “I have a great deal of respect for Quinnipiac. I thought they battled right to the end and it was a very hard-fought victory.”However, all its efforts were to little avail as Harvard hung on and added to its lead. With 5:15 left to play, Rogers’ high-velocity shot at the goal from the right side was deflected to a waiting Taylor, who punched the puck into...

The two nations were born in a bloody partition at independence almost 61 years ago, and their relationship has never really recovered, having fought three wars and regular skirmishes along the cease-fire line that divides the disputed territory of Kashmir. The stakes were raised considerably at the end of the last decade, when both sides tested nuclear weapons.
