...actor is playing a poor army recruit from a village in central India who runs just to get the extra ration of food allotted to athletes. At his first race, his character doesn't know what to do when the pistol sounds, so he prays. "You idiot! Run!" the starter screams. That spurs the soldier into action, and the naive confusion on his face turns into determination. Extras from the Bengal Sappers - actual young army recruits who live on the base in Roorkee in northern Uttarakhand state, where the movie is being filmed - crowd around the sidelines as he lowers...
Kenyi walked out onto the court as a starter for the first time since he was injured in the fall. After being sidelined due to an MCL injury in November, Kenyi made a clear case for a successful recovery, putting up nine points and leading all Harvard players with seven rebounds...

Things didn’t pick up for the third-year starter as he also lost the decisive set, 6-4.

Noonan was similarly a runner-up for the Hermann trophy and has played 12 times for the U.S. National Team, but has been on a decline in form since he became a prominent starter for the New England Revolution. Akpan, who almost resembles an amalgamation of Casey and Cummings, should take advantage of the knowledge and experience at his disposal. He won’t be able to replicate the success he enjoyed in college to the MLS as his speed is simply average at the Pro level, but his proclivity for finding the back...
