...Then the national shows started calling. "What was it like when you found out you had swine flu?" a CNN anchor asked Hayden. He replied, in a teenager's deadpan, "I mean, it's just the flu.

...Harvard coach Jamie Clark said. “It took us a lot of time to break them down, but we were patient and it paid off.” The real reward for the Crimson came after Akpan’s goal. Harvard continued to wear down its Connecticut opponent, and unleashed a torrent of offensive fury following the half. “The second 45 minutes we clearly were the better team,” Clark added.
