The varsity lacrosse team spent a week following some of the nation's finest opposition around the green fields of the Southern Territory, picking up sun tan and bruises and perhaps a little wisdom. At week's end, they piled into their bus and followed the blizzard from Annapolis to Boston. Road time: 20 hrs.

As for the long journey out of winter, the Crimson lost them all, but was better than expected.
