Although Harvard's six-man contingent has been anchored by a trio of juniors--Zimmerman, Mike Shyjan, and Albert Chang--ranked in the nation's top-40, the Crimson relied heavily on its depth last weekend. Juniors John Tolmie and Derek Brown and freshman Ian Williams all went undefeated against Navy and West Virginia. The 6'9" Williams, taller than every member of Harvard's basketball team, looked especially impressive with his net play, something he has been steadily improving over the course of the year...
...bracing lesson in an event familiar to every democracy: an upset at the polls. But in Poland's still imperfectly formed democracy, the result was more upsetting than usual.

The expedition was the first to reach the pole by dogsled since Roald Amundsen beat Robert Scott there 78 years ago. But impressive as the feat is, it marks only the midpoint of an even more ambitious journey: a 6,450-km (4,000-mile) campaign that would be the first dogsled trip...
