Qualifying for the NCAA A Division Championships, the Hales Corners, Wis. native also claimed first in both of the day’s diving events.

...make bad hires in the first place, there'd be no fans daring them to clean house. Sacramento hired the former NBA player Theus, for example, before the 2007-08 season based on just his two strong years of college coaching at New Mexico State - not exactly an NCAA powerhouse. Carlesimo, once a successful college coach at Seton Hall University, had never meshed with pro players: in the 1990s, he failed in both Portland and Golden State, where he found himself on the receiving end of Latrell Sprewell's infamous choke hold. Randy Wittman was coaching a team that everyone...

...opponent tomorrow, the Colonials, are one of the highest-profile teams the Crimson will play all year. Playing in the Atlantic 10 Conference, three years ago George Washington went 26-2 during the regular season and won a thriller in the first round of the NCAA Tournament against UNC Wilmington before falling against Duke. The team returned to the Tournament again the next year, falling to Vanderbilt in the first round. A year after missing out on postseason action altogether after posting a disappointing 9-17 record, the Colonials are off to a decent 3-2 start so far this...

...expect great things from this talented freshman over the next four years. Weiler should continue to be a success in the Ivy League and may even surpass the number one vaulter in Crimson history, Geoff Stiles ’79, who vaulted 17 feet 3 inches at the NCAA championship in 1979. The closest anyone has gotten to Stiles is Steven Brannon ’97-’98, who came within five inches in 1995. At Gordon Track, the Crimson’s home turf, a large sign lists the men’s and women?...
