...many ways, this matchup should set up similarly to the Holy Cross game two weeks ago. Lehigh is less explosive offensively, but should play slightly stiffer 'D.'

This isn't all about altruism. Illinois-based stock trader Dan Cooper, who set up Friends of Rwanda with partner Joe Ritchie to coordinate what he calls "this contagious enthusiasm," says: "You get the head...
