...Niel into the center of the huddle. A video on The New York Times’ Web site shows Van Niel serenading the locker room with an impromptu rendition of “God Bless America.” ‘Cause we all know that the game??s not over until the fullback sings. “I got goose bumps,” says Murphy. Van Niel’s experience as an opera-singing fullback (or perhaps a football-playing lyric tenor) recently captured the interest of the national media. The sudden attention surprised...
Vaillancourt—who is second in the country with 1.45 assists per game??has added a team-first element to her fast-paced, gun-slinging style of play.

The Crimson hit its most clutch free throws—one from Hallion and two from junior guard Emily Tay—in the last 26 seconds of the game to seal...

It was Amaker’s players who broke down in the contest’s final minutes, allowing the Crimson to score the game??s last 11 points en route to a win that was much more dramatic than the final score indicated. In other words, Saturday’s upset isn’t as perfect a reflection on Amaker as we might believe at first.MALCOM: It’s true, those were Amaker?...
