...game sweep, winning the first game in thrilling fashion as Reese resorted to captainship by example, rallying his team from a 2-0 deficit with a natural hat trick.But in the second round versus Clarkson, the Crimson offense faltered, managing just one goal in two games as the Golden Knights swept Harvard from the playoffs.The ECAC playoff elimination, combined with Harvard’s sub-.500 non-conference record, ensured that the Crimson would be sitting out the NCAA Tournament for the first time in five seasons.Reese, however, expressed hope that the trying season would prove beneficial in the coming...

...played out in similar fashion: Harvard never found a groove and instead experienced a period of turbulence. The Crimson ultimately posted a 4-5 record for the month. During its foray into California, the team underwent a three-game slump, losing to Iona, La Verne, and California Baptist. The Golden State proved particularly troubling for the team—of the five matches Harvard played there, it came away with only one victory, a 9-3 decision over Occidental College. With the disappointing road trip fresh in their minds, the men returned to Cambridge to face off against Ivy League...

...lighting technician for the Golden Globes, where Clooney is always Mr. Fabulous, more knowing about how to photograph him than Soderbergh (who shot the film under the pseudonym Peter Andrews)? How come Damon is more handsome and engaging in person than in this movie? When Pitt is first spotted, he looks as though he fell asleep for a year under a sun lamp. Pacino it takes a few seconds to recognize; he too looks weird, and so does Barkin. Her face has the recognizable intelligence and insolence, but the rest of her seems somehow bronzed and sanded - an unfortunate impression...
