...reduce air resistance. At slower speeds, it seems easy enough: build up pyramids and break them down in a predetermined sequence. But as the game has become increasingly popular--some 15,000 schools and recreation centers worldwide have bought group stacking kits in the past three years--the tempo, not to mention the dang-this-makes-adults-feel-old factor, has really picked...

Unfazed, Dartmouth scored two more in under a minute, leaving Harvard with little hope.Nine minutes later, after a stretch of scoreless play, the Crimson was more than frustrated. Picking up the tempo, sophomore Jess Halpern gave the ball to Martin, who sent a shot into the goal with three minutes left in the game. Harvard’s streak continued less than a minute later when Petropulos picked up the draw and sent it to Halpern, who watched as her free position...
