...very strong personalities,” Crimson coach Ted Donato ’91 says of the departed leaders. “It’s tough to replace guys like that.” Enter Jack Christian and Brian McCafferty. As soon as they set foot in the Yard, they were handed freshman assignments more daunting than any Expos paper: take over the positions of two of the most skilled Crimson defensemen in recent memory, and make the transition smoothly and quickly enough to keep the team competitive down the stretch.

By daybreak, 40 more bodies were found around the city, most bearing signs of torture before the men were killed execution-style. The most gruesome discovery was an 18-by-24-foot mass grave in the Shi'ite slum of Kamaliyah in east Baghdad containing the bodies of 29 men, clad only in their underwear with their hands bound and their mouths covered with tape. Local residents only found it because the ground was oozing blood. In all, 87 bodies were found over...
