...Jones' fall had been coming for a while. His supporters pointed to his feat of guiding the Wallabies to the final of the last World Cup, but the side was impressive just once in that campaign. The Wallabies' loss to Wales on Nov. 26 was their eighth defeat in nine Tests. Each time, they retreated to camp amid a buzz about grueling sessions and tactical fine-tuning, only to play just as badly the next time. Many observers have railed about favoritism shown to the ageing captain. But the team's problems go beyond George Gregan. Success in rugby...
...lost a 4-1 decision to Chris Vondruska. The score grew more lopsided when freshman Wesley Walker (174 lbs.), sophomores Joseph Bechtold (184 lbs.), and sophomore Jonathan Butler (197 lbs.) all dropped their matches.

She has now notched the game-winning goal in half of the team’s victories this season, ranking her eighth in the nation in that category. Solley added a score in the third period to bring her season total to five.“I think I was just well-rested if anything,” Solley said. “My two goals were other people?...
...Green, which has a very young team coming into this season, did not look ready to face a more experienced Harvard team that has a high proportion of juniors and seniors on its roster. Dartmouth lost four starters from last year’s team, which finished eighth in the Collegiate Squash Association and fourth in the Ivies. It now has four freshmen on its roster competing to secure starting roles. “Dartmouth is still rebuilding its program,” said DiSesa, who played in the fifth position.
