Knoche made stop after stop to preserve the stalemate—making eight saves including an athletic stop on a Big Red breakaway—but Cornell senior Blair Corcoran notched the game-winner at 55:16 off a pass from Lindsay Moyer. The loss drops Harvard to unfamiliar sub-.500 territory in both its overall and Ivy records. The Big Red, meanwhile, improves to a 4-1 Ivy mark, matching its all-time best single-season conference total. Next up for the Crimson is another tough road game against archrival Yale this Saturday at noon...

Instead he steps into the well-worn...
...Patriots (2-2) their first home defeat since the New York Jets visited Massachusetts on Dec. 22, 2002.A capacity Gillette Stadium crowd—New England’s 119th in a row—began to file out early in the fourth quarter, a sight as unfamiliar in Foxborough as a missed Adam Vinatieri field goal.But both, conspicuously, happened yesterday. Vinatieri shanked a 37-yarder, his first miss in 35 consecutive tries within the 47-yard line, and the Patriots squandered their opening drive of the game.As the ball fell right, a hush fell over the crowd.New England...
