Princeton’s young guns played with tremendous swagger earlier in the year, quickly jumping out to a 4-0 record. Starting with their first nationally ranked opponent (No. 19 Monmouth), the team proceeded to lose five of its next six games—including defeats to Dartmouth and Brown. Although the Tigers are on a two-game winning streak, their midseason slump has all but eliminated them from the Ivy-title race. Rookie forward Matt Sanner is one to watch, though. With three goals and three assists thus far, the newcomer has emerged...

America is the land of second acts, but still, a gay former child actor who loves magic isn't supposed to return as an icon of cool masculinity. Yet at 36, Neil Patrick Harris, who played a genius teenage doctor on Doogie Howser, M.D., has used rat-pack swagger to climb the hosting rope in record time, from emceeing the TV Land awards in April to the Tonys in June to the Emmys on Sept. 20.

Whatever Delaney-Smith said to her squad, it somehow conjured the force in them. “We fell apart in the first half, rallied at halftime,” sophomore forward Jackie Alemany said...
