...Following a mediocre season which concluded with four straight Ivy losses, Princeton Coach Cindy Cohen announced her resignation. The departure of Cohen--who led Princeton to the College World Series twice in the mid-90's--marks the end of an era of Tiger dominance in the Ivy League. Princeton (21-25, 6-6) will hope to improve under new coach Maureen Davies, who won a school-record 83 games during the Tigers' glory years...

They too are the spawn of a biological experiment. (They also levitate, like the "Tiger" women.) And though the show is perky, and its pace frenetic, the Girls carry the burden of others' expectation. When things go wrong, the Townsville adults chant, "Your fault! Your fault!"
