It is Bosco's article, severely influenced by obvious personal prejudice, that makes it clear with which side his sympathies...
...difference between last season and this lay instead with Harvard's players. Start with captain Tarik Campbell. After a miserable shooting performance last December in Hanover, the senior bombed in 11 points last night, including two important three-pointers at the beginning of the second half, and also handed out seven assists...
