...postponed play, Harvard softball (10-15, 3-3 Ivy) competed in its first Ivy League home game against Columbia (12-18, 3-3 Ivy) yesterday at Soldiers Field. Originally scheduled for Saturday, the doubleheader continued through conditions that felt more like February than April. 40 degree temperature, wind, and rain made for messier-than-average defense, as the Crimson and the Lions combined for 10 errors on the day. “It’s muddy out there, it’s hard to get your footing, it’s gross outside, and it’s easy...
...shots. Sacred Heart rounded out the top three and host Yale cruised to an eighth-place finish. “Last year going into the final round we had the lead, [so] we were excited to get a second chance,” sophomore Greg Shuman said. Despite consistent rain and temperatures in the 30s that made play on Sunday particularly challenging, the Crimson improved from its 296 shot total and sixth-place finish after day one. A three-way tie between Drexel, Temple, and Cornell at 294 faded into memory when Harvard notched the tournament low score for either...
Last year we had Third Eye Blind, but this year we might get third-time lucky. In 2007, the second annual Harvard College Yardfest suffered declining turnout, possibly due to the rain, but also because the young College Events Board (CEB) had yet to establish itself as a successful organization for the social scene at Harvard. This year’s Yardfest, however, promises to be a night to remember, largely due to its positive new leadership. Though it has historically suffered from the reputation that its events are not always successful, the CEB this year has already improved upon...
...this week's Greencast.) As temperatures increase, and hotter, drier summers become the norm in regions that were once temperate, powerful heat waves - like the one in Europe in 2003, which killed an estimated 35,000 people - will take a toll. At the same time, climate models suggest that rain could become less frequent overall but more intense when it does fall, leading to a double whammy. Longer and fiercer droughts in some areas will worsen hunger, but severe rainstorms carry an increased risk of water-borne diseases like cholera. "It's not just warming, it's climate change," says...
...Repeated rain delays forced the Harvard softball team to take a mid-week trip down the winding roads to Ithaca to play a double-header with Cornell that was originally slated for last Saturday. The Crimson dropped the first game but pulled out a win in the second to salvage its first Ivy win of the year. The win is not just significant because it is the first league victory, it is also the first time the senior class has beaten the Big Red. “We just wanted to come out firing,” sophomore Jen Francis...
