Breaking through the Harvard defense on the right side, Stolle passed to Marland stationed in front of the net. Marland pushed the ball past the outstretched glove of Harvard sophomore goalie Katie Zacarian to round out the score...
...world has changed; Jackson’s single white glove and moonwalk are relevant no more, long since replaced by new fads and fancies. Staying power need not be an impossible feat, however. Madonna and Sting, both rockers of the 1980s, have stayed fresh and hip well into the new millennium. But they never had to contend with life as a child performer, with racism, with scandal, or with what is perhaps the most insurmountable obstacle of all: a little album known as Thriller...
Following obligatory youth-market duets with Britney Spears and 'N Sync, Jackson put on a sequined glove and sang his solo hits. It is hard to believe how easily the past 15 years of Wacko Jacko melt away when he sings and dances. Jackson's voice was noticeably lower, though agile enough to nail Billie Jean and Beat It.

Peterman has targeted that niche since the mid-1960s, when he hung up his baseball glove after three years as a minor-league second baseman for the Pittsburgh Pirates.

But these being glove-gray country mice that have skittered in from a Tom and Jerry cartoon, I root for their innocence and ingenuity. I am even mouse-proud. My mice are smarter than your mice! After the stunt with the Skippy peanut butter jar, I felt as they had gotten 800s on their SATs. These guys are good...
