Both players repeated on the All-Ivy first team after being the only sophomores named to it last year. Maybe next spring Ince will regain the crown. Or perhaps Johnsen will win it. On the other hand, maybe coach Bruce Munro will. Ince and Johnsen played together at Garden City High School on Long Island and were the two super scorers earlier this season before Webster rallied...

Ince plays squash, too. It's remarkable that he had never played before coming to Harvard, and this winter competed at number four and number six on the best collegiate team in the nation. Some of the explanation has to be natural ability and the excellent coaching of Corey Wynn and Jack Barnaby. But probably the main reason for his squash success is determination, trite as it may seem. Ince really works at trying to improve. One of his teammates said that he didn't really have great finesse or a soft touch, but that he more than made...

...Yankees will. And Ince's dedication is evident on the lacrosse field as well as on a squash court. One day when I went down to practice, everyone had gone in except for three guys. One of them was Ince. He was one of the few guys that the team could count on when everyone else started playing badly. He was as consistent as Frankie Avalaon, though not as greasy as the kid from Philly...

Another oddity is his apparent optimism. Early this season when the lacrosse team was suffering from an identity crisis, Ince tried to look at the bright side. At a squad meeting before practice, Gary Leahey had just spoken rather unenthusiastically about the team's deficient attitude. Ince then got up and said he didn't think things were all that bad and that everyone shouldn't get down. He didn't say it with great eloquence, and Leahey's point of view certainly mad more sense, but hearing Ince speak as he did was somehow impressive. It was just good...

Ince may make All-American this year. The selections haven't been made yet, but there can be no question that he is a prime candidate. Webster made the third team last year, but Ince was not so honored. Some of Johns Hopkins excellent attackmen of a year ago are gone, however, so this should make even more of an opening for Ince. Mike Ananis was on the third unit last year, and Regan and Jim Kilkowski were both honorable mention. All three, especially Regan, have a good chance to be selected again. And if Ince doesn't get chosen...
