...Harvard women’s swimming and diving team soaked its competition at the Nassau City Aquatics Center in New York this past weekend to win its ninth Ivy League Championship title. The Crimson triumphed over the three-time reigning Ancient Eight victor, Princeton, by a decisive margin of 249.5 points. Overall, Harvard finished with 1583.5 points, six event championships, ten school records, and eleven NCAA Championship provisional qualifying times. “I think that they came together as a team.” Crimson coach Stephanie Morawski said. “Not only did we secure wins...
...tonight.” Seniors Evan Harris, captain Andrew Pusar, and Housman won their final game at home in a close encounter with Cornell that has become typical as of late. The previous two Harvard–Cornell matchups at Lavietes Pavilion have ended by the same one point margin with the teams splitting the pair of contests. This time around it was Harvard taking the win in front of a near-capacity crowd. The Big Red started out the game strong, racing to an 8-2 lead. But an emphatic dunk by Wright in the 16th minute signaled...

...loans, condo-flipping and the collateralized debt obligations that no one fully understands. A hard rain now falls on the just as well as the unjust. Consumers have stopped spending, factories have stopped operating, employers have stopped hiring - and home values continue to fall. For millions of people, the margin between getting by and getting buried is becoming as thin and as bloody as a razor blade...
...last two times these schools met here, the games were decided on the final possession, with a one-point Crimson victory in 2007, and a Cornell win by the same margin last year. It was this time last year in Ithaca the Big Red clinched the Ivy title. If it wins at Dartmouth, it can clinch at least a tie with a win at Harvard. In the Crimson’s favor, it has by and large played much better on the second night of back-to-back games so far. And surely Cornell would rather wait until next weekend...
