Brent distinctly remembers a story from seventh-grade basketball, in which he was playing point guard and didn’t take a shot the entire game, even passing up wide-open lay-ups in order to give his teammates the ball. After the game, his parents brought him into a room which had a sign that read, “A ship in the harbor is safe, but that’s not what ships are built...
...took the lead to start the game. At 15:27 into the first period, Tiger Dan Bartlett collected the puck in his defensive zone and made a break down ice toward the Harvard net.

The instruments still sound prepackaged and the chord changes, while effective, remain obvious. The production, though...
Berry drove the lane to dish to a wide-open Miriam Rutzen for an easy lay-up. Rutzen then got a block on the other end of the floor, leading to two free throws for Lippert and setting off a 17-8 Harvard run to close out the game...
