...Maki’s crossover move at the blue line to lose his defender before he blasted the puck just above Catamount goalie Travis Russell’s glove, what Mazzoleni termed “a real nice goal-scorer’s goal,” was a nail in the coffin—and a beautiful one at that—but ultimately just icing on the cake...
...penultimate event of the competition, the three-meter dive, freshman Annika Giesbrecht, junior Anne Osmun and senior Renee Paradise all made the final eight with high hopes for strong finishes to close the gap on Princeton going into the last event. Osmun was in position to nail down the number-one spot for Harvard but posted her worse dive of the day in her last attempt, dropping her down the leader-board. Osmun finished fourth with 450.90 points, Giesbrecht followed in fifth with 446.60 points, with Paradise in sixth with 442.80 points...

As the first nail hits his wrist, Jesus writhes in anguish and the film slows to a freeze frame. In the version shown on Fox Movie Channel, the movie ends abruptly, with a last conspiratorial chat between Herod and Caiaphas. "The Day Christ Died" is thus closer to a "Who Killed...
