...from freshman Kristina Bergquist. BROWN 12, HARVARD 3 Brown was able to capitalize on the inconsistent Crimson defense to run away with Saturday’s afternoon game. There were spurts, especially the third quarter, when Harvard outscored the Bears 3-1, during which the Crimson was able to limit Brown’s fast-break opportunities. But Brown exploded in the second and fourth quarters for four goals and five goals, respectively. Freshmen Ariel Delgado played a solid game between the pipes for the Crimson. Delgado, who boasted 16 saves including two stops on penalty shots, was the main...

She says she's standing firm to protect...
...hits, no runs, no errors. The much-anticipated first "debate" of the 2008 Democratic candidates Thursday night at South Carolina State University in Orangeburg, S.C., was a polite event - and not a particularly enlightening one. Part of the problem was the format, in which candidates were limited to 60-second answers and not allowed to engage each other. Part of it was the sheer number of people onstage: eight candidates in all. But after 90 minutes, it was hard to pick out a single memorable answer. The only thing made clearer is why the candidates, who are facing scores...
