...coach Ray Leone said. The Crimson (10-3-4, 5-1-1 Ivy) earned the Ivy League’s automatic bid into the tournament after defeating Columbia 2-1 last weekend in a double overtime thriller. The winning goal came when junior Lizzy Nichols scored on a penalty kick with nine seconds remaining in the game. The goal gave Harvard its first Ivy League title since 1999. Northeastern (13-8-1, 6-5 CAA) had an improbable road to the NCAA Championships. After finishing sixth in the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) regular season standings, the Huskies made...

It’s been a big week for all of us. There’s going to be a new president in the White House (who can dance); Bilotti perfected a kick-flip on his Tech Deck (finger skateboard, if you went to private school); Chiappini got a quart of Ben & Jerry’s and sobbed himself to sleep in the shower after dog racing was banned; our cyber-column was censored for several hours; and we began to feel the fallout from allegedly alleging a certain group of girls suffer from a particular health risk...
