...Cornell did—the Crimson has often struggled to score. Cornell followed up Katherine Simmons’ game-opening goal with quick scores from Margaux Viola and Kathryn Dewey. Harvard got on the board with a score from junior attack Kaitlin Martin, who notched a hat trick to bump her team-leading goal total to 38. But every time the Crimson scored, the Big Red quickly matched. Just 15 seconds after Martin’s tally, Cornell attack Courtney Farrell retaliated with an unassisted goal. A minute later, Farrell notched another goal to make the score 5-1. Following...
...slow start from Harvard let Dartmouth grab a 4-0 lead ten minutes into the contest, and the Big Green never looked back.

Princeton scored four more goals before the Harvard got on the board again. Finally, junior attack Tara Schoen stopped the Tigers’ streak, scoring for the Crimson to cut the lead to 9-2. However, Princeton would not stay quiet for long. The Tigers fired off more...
...general messiness and desperation of life, than fictional crime. Some innocent early reviewers have discerned "Hitchcockian overtones" in Fracture. That's a pretty wet idea. But the old master was awfully good at making us root for his miscreants almost against our wills and this is the good little trick The Hoax manages to impose...
