...promised land soon.Will it be this year? History says no. In addition to never winning the league, the Crimson has only finished second once, back in 1971, while every other Ivy school has snagged at least part of one crown since league play began in 1956. More recently, Harvard saw promising title chances in 2003 and 2006 slip away as the team faltered in the heat of Ivy play.The critics dislike Harvard’s chances this year as well. The preseason media poll gave first- place votes to five teams, none of them located in Cambridge. That was generous...
...only seven of its 19 baskets, and committed 19 turnovers. The team also had a miserable showing at the free-throw line, where it converted only 15 of 31 attempts.

Their best opportunity of the second half came courtesy of a header off a corner that sophomore defender Kelli Okuji was able to clear off the line. The final 10 minutes of the match saw Harvard put the Penn defense under constant pressure for the first time. The Crimson served a lot of crosses into the box, but none of them were able to connect with a Harvard player. The best work of the afternoon came from the Crimson’s freshmen. Harvard looked...
...more conspicuous way: they drive Toyota Priuses, the hybrid-engine vehicles that get over 40 miles to the gallon. Computer scientist Margo I. Seltzer ’83, a recent Prius convert, says she started feeling guilty about her ’96 Toyota Corolla when she saw Al Gore ’69’s “An Inconvenient Truth” over the summer. Perhaps the campus’s most venerable Prius owner is former University President Derek C. Bok, the political scientist who served a second stint in Mass. Hall last year...
