...today's game, Garces and Co. will have a choice of two fine Crimson netminders to terrorize, and neither goalie is the type that backs down under pressure. Playing with his broken hand in a cast, Tom Bagnoli spent the better part of practice yesterday trying to convince coach Bruce Munro that he was ready for action.

...showed Joyce's matchless command of the English language and his finger on the tragicomic pulse of human life. If that life sometimes seemed tinged with an indefinable futility, it was because Joyce tried to construct a universe without God. In such a universe, superstition cast a spell. He saw coincidences as magic omens and tried to have all his books published on his birthday (Feb. 2). He wore a special ring to ward off blindness.
