...passed on the first six plays, driving down the field for 47 yards. But then, the beast that proved to be a recurring problem for the Crimson offense—the red zone—reared its ugly head.On first and goal at the four, Pizzotti rushed for a loss of two yards. Then a holding penalty moved the ball back to the 16. A short pass to sophomore receiver Marco Iannuzzi gained four, but an incomplete pass intended for sophomore wideout Levi Richards resulted in Harvard having to settle for a field goal from junior kicker Patrick Long.The Crusaders...
...That secondary will be tested immediately, as Holy Cross quarterback Dominic Randolph, a preseason All-American, leads a potent Crusaders passing attack. Randolph threw for 249 yards and three touchdowns in Holy Cross’ first contest of the season, a 45-42 loss to No. 4 Massachusetts, on Sept. 6.

Life could disappear for five years, and I'd probably enjoy...
...well as an epic romance, this is a story of homes, homelessness and what it means to be an outsider. In several instances in the novel, the ownership or loss of home and property opens the way for events of crucial emotional significance. "Home is where one starts from," wrote T.S. Eliot. But Roy's novel upends that idea with infinitely sympathetic elegance: What if home is something that you make rather than what you are given...
