...captain Luke Sager. Harvard crossed the Charles River to take on BU at Nickerson Field, hoping to attain victory in its last game before the start of the Ivy League matchups. The game started out very quickly, with the Terriers scoring their first goal from a deflected 40-yard shot from midfield. But junior forward Andre Akpan tied the score just seconds later, heading in a free kick by junior midfielder Brian Grimm. However, this would prove to be the only goal that the Crimson’s offense could muster. Harvard had several good looks throughout the night...
...Harvard Yard is in the midst of a massive makeover—but most of the effects will be invisible. The Yard is undergoing a comprehensive soil restoration project that will revitalize its heavily-trodden grass and, within the next year, eliminate the use of herbicides, pesticides, and synthetic fertilizers.

...quarterback. But that luxury—and that burden—falls on head coach Tim Murphy, who has to figure out what to do with the talent he has returning for the 2008 season. So how to make the choice between a guy that stands sixth in passing yards and ninth in total offense in Harvard history (Liam O’Hagan) and a guy that finished as the top quarterback in the Ivy League last season (Chris Pizzotti)? For Murphy, it was a no-brainer: go with Pizzotti. A First Team All-Ivy member in 2007, the senior...
