...nervous hoopsters played sloppy ball but had moderate success with a new offensive play designed to move the point guard inside for closer shots. Freshman guards Frenesa Hall and Nancy Boutillier made the play work and moved the Crimson within two points of SMU at the half...
...Within the confines of this problematic script, the three actors do not perform poorly. Richard Kavanaugh (Scooper) thrives on the satirical scenes, timing his funniest lines well, and delivering them in a booming baritone that reverbrates about the small theatre.
