Despite twice tying the score, the Crimson could not subsequently recapture the lead. Burrows knocked down a trifecta from along the baseline with just 78 seconds left and the shot clock about to expire. A missed 18-footer by Holsey and Franklin’s subsequent foul moments later appeared to seal Northeastern’s victory, but Burrows’ two foul shots clanged off the iron, granting Harvard a temporary reprieve, initially made good upon by sophomore forward Christiana Lackner?...
...first video game I ever purchased, and no doubt the initiation of many gamers of our Halo-fed generation, was that awe-inspiring trifecta of pixilated pleasures: the Super Mario Bros. / Duck Hunt / World Class Track Meet combo pack.

(As the coach of the U.S. Olympic team, he goes for the trifecta in Athens this summer.) But it took a union with Dumars to give the itinerant coach his crown. And the ex-Piston bad boy, who helped Detroit win back-to-back championships as a player in 1989 and '90, made history of his own, becoming the first African-American...
