...Maine kept it close, however, and an offensive rebound by forward Phillipe Tchekane-Bofia led to a put-back that cut the lead to 73-71 with nine seconds to play. The Crimson calmly got the ball into the hands of Housman, who buried a pair from the line to put the game...
...Cusworth immediately responded. The 7’0 center took over down low, battling for advantageous position and demanding the ball from the guards. He began with a pair of free-throws and added three consecutive lay-ups, the last coming on a three-point play. Overall Cusworth scored nine straight points for Harvard, bringing the Crimson back within one at 47-46 and killing the quicker Maine squad’s chance to run away with things...

Yet it was the pair of wars launched in the wake of those terror strikes that, over time, highlighted on a far bigger stage his short-sighted and subordinate-ruffling demeanor. The cracks in his management acumen began showing as the insurgency surged in Iraq in late 2003, and widened when the heinous photographs...
