...marked the passing of a year since my injury. I knew I'd never regain what I had lost in penmanship, tennis, home repair, lovemaking, freedom from pain and dexterity. Even putting on a tie remained a challenge, one fraught with danger. Rushing to a TV appearance a few weeks earlier, I tried to knot one in the backseat of a taxi. I gripped the short end with my prosthetic hand, which began to spin uncontrollably, almost strangling me before I managed to extricate myself...
...break through the madness. Taking full advantage of a penalty corner, the Bears zipped a long shot from the outer limits of the circle. Sophomore goaltender Kelly Knoche, ready and waiting, intercepted the ball, earning her the first of ten saves on the game and maintaining the scoreless tie. Harvard muscled its way into some scoring chances of its own in the first half. An aggressive shot by sophomore Tami Jafar edged just wide of the cage before the Crimson’s attack was again foiled, this time by the hustle and alertness of a Brown player from...
...probably kill it.” The Crimson opened the match with a strong effort. After dropping the first two points, Harvard took advantage of Mahon’s aggressive jump serve to go on an 8-1 run.

Nichols, a freshman defenseman and the team’s leader in points, suffered a concussion and three facial fractures in a collision during the team’s scoreless tie with St. Mary’s last weekend. She will not play at Penn this weekend but hopes to be back on the field to face Yale at Ohiri Field on September 30. Sherman, a freshman midfielder, sprained her ankle during the second half of last week?...
...progression from that first weekend. Success against BU would fill the Crimson (0-5-1) with more confidence as its Ivy League season begins Sunday at Penn. If the team can achieve a good result, it would continue on its rising learning curve climbing following its first tie of the season last weekend against St. Mary’s. What’s more, it would put them on level footing with Brown (4-1-2, 0-0-0 Ivy), the second-place team in the Ivies, who tied BU 0-0 early in the season...
