...play that soured Yale’s first trip to the red zone and broke open the then 14-0 game. His scamper down the Bulldog sideline must have looked eerily familiar to onlooking Yale fans, who had witnessed senior wide receiver Brian Edwards shred the Bulldog special teams unit with a 53-yard punt return for a touchdown just over two minutes earlier...

As the sun set, a decrepit warehouse suddenly sparkled with at least a dozen muzzle flashes. Bullets flew thick over the unit's commandeered building.
