A week and a half before the season began in January, the men's and women's tennis teams hit a setback. A monstrous winter storm took down a part of the Paul Bailey Pizzitola Memorial Sports Center's membrane roof, and a large patch of snow landed in the middle of the tennis courts.

Even though the men's and women's golf teams play the same sport, they still somehow find a way to be polar opposites. Both squads resume their seasons in the upcoming weeks after a five-month furlough between their spring and fall campaigns, but they will be looking at them very differently.
Midway through December, I sat on a bus bound for northern Maine, firmly sandwiched between a morbidly obese woman and the grimy windows of Concord Coach. The in-drive movie was the shockingly horrendous "The Back-up Plan," so I was forced to turn to my iPhone to pass the time. Luckily, I had just downloaded ...

As a senior in high school, Lex Rofes '13 had an idea. Why not use people's love for college basketball not as a way to make individual profit, but to help charity?
The women's lacrosse team came away with a win and a loss on the road last week, defeating Quinnipiac Tuesday and falling to No. 17 Princeton Saturday. Bruno (3-2, 1-1 Ivy League) lit up the Bobcats (0-3) for 16 goals but could not keep pace with the Tigers (3-1, 1-0).
It's fourth-and-goal. You're down by five with just 10 seconds left on the clock. Eleven enormous and entirely imaginary men stand between you and the freshly raked pile of leaves signifying your makeshift end zone. Super Bowl glory is yours for the taking.
