...notion of a religious god continues to haunt much secular Western literature and art, the idea of genius—no matter how bankrupt—continues to make itself felt in the modern creative process.

The Crimson showcased its young talent with another outstanding individual performance from freshman Hideko Tachibana, who won both the Flight A doubles and singles championship. Players from Harvard, Boston College, Boston University, as well as the University of Texas at San Antonio took to the courts on Friday with first rounds of doubles and singles and continued through to the semifinals on a cool and blustery Saturday that served as an early taste of fall weather...
