...Crimson wasn’t quite as effective the next night. It was outshot (40-38) and outchanced by St. Lawrence, but demonstrated requisite intestinal fortitude by blocking 16 shots. Harvard had costly defensive lapses and took a couple foolish penalties, but a fourth-liner just back from a season-long injury (Kenny Turano) had two points, and Tyler Kolarik (two goals) was a difference-maker...
Somewhere buried deep beneath Pennypacker Hall, in the coffins of WHRB’s Record Hospital, sits a compact disc without liner notes; they fell out long ago. Now white labels cover the case, with the scrawling of many hands over every square inch.

If public affection is any measure, the world's largest cruise liner looks well set for a long and happy life. --With reporting by Barbara Kiviat/New York City
