Harvard will stick with the triangle offense it has used for four years. The offense, popularized by NBA Coach Phil Jackson, is difficult to scout because it is keyed by a pass. Wherever the first pass goes, the play follows, and each first pass keys a different set of cuts and screens. Delaney-Smith said she found out about the offense from the former Loyola head coach after losing to the Greyhounds in a game she feels she should have...
...have a transition offense that I just love," Delaney-Smith said. "It compliments our inside game as well as our outside game. And I think if I were trying to scout our transition game, I would be very worried. It's a game that sets a lot of screens for shooters and puts one of our 6'5 kids on the block so that we either take the shot and we're in great rebounding position or we get it inside and open up shooters.

Last Monday morning, pro golfer Payne Stewart awoke with the world on a string. He was to fly from his home in Orlando, Fla., eager to scout a site in Dallas that might be used for his fledgling golf-course-design business. Then on to Houston for the Tour Championship, a prestigious, season-crowning showdown among an elite field of the year's Top 30 money winners.

And what written line better sums up the passing of a generation than Paul Simon's "Where have you gone Joe DiMaggio, a nation turns its lonely eyes to you."? Simon was bemoaning the loss of heroes in America...
...school: No. 216. Anne and many of her friends are members of the school's selective Pegasus program, an accelerated English class with about 25 students per grade. To be admitted, candidates send in a portfolio prior to their freshman year; entries range from stamp collections to Boy Scout badges to Anne's video of one of her theater performances. Since theirs is a four-year course of study, the Pegasites, as they are known, often travel in a pack. And you'll more likely find them rehashing the National Honor Society barbecue than last weekend's parties...
