After making bogeys on nine, 11 and 12, he bagged a birdie on 13. He had another bonafide chance at a birdie on the par three 17th when he hit a ripcord three-iron through the wind, ten feet from the pin. Dales then three-putted for a bogey and remarked afterwards. I couldn't even talk...

Then fashion...

Marshall did not go gift-less, though. After the game, his baserunning manuever received the annual "Pin Head Award," Harvard baseball's version of the Gong Show "dirty sock." "It's a unique honor to win the game and the Pin Head," Marshall noted...
