Ezra Stiles

Moose...Moose... MOOSE! Hear the roar of our women! Battling back from a disappointing first game rout, the women of Stiles volleyball gathered their energy and focused it on Calhoun. The match came down to a third and determining game. An amazing team was present, filled with talented players like Melissa Huang '98, Rashida Braggs '98, Helen Chan '99, Yun Kim '99, Sharon Eldridge '99, Roopa Purushothaman '00, Amanda Kaplan '00, Betsy Goldman '01, and Katrina Shockley '00. Stiles played with heart and soul. It was a game worth crying over. With deuce at 14-14, the score wavered to and fro. Commendable serving, setting, hitting, and digging all around--but who finally prevailed? THE MOOSE! The final score of the third game: 19-17. Life is sweet.

The exhibition pool rung with the roar of the Moose this Tuesday as a horde of enthusiastic Stilesians answered the call to battle. The FAB Fabrizio Cascianelli '98 ripped up the water as he tore his path to victory through the dreaded individual medley. Tyler Cheung '01 left dead men floating in his wake as he murdered his way to a great showing in the breaststroke.

And no witness will forget the ever-beautiful and radiant women of Stiles blinding the men with glowing performances, gliding through the water like dolphins. Molly Fournier '01 skipped across the water like a butterfly in that emasculator of men and women alike, the individual medley. Intrepid captain Eva Heintzelman '98 was a shimmer in the pool as she slipped through her events with stunning speed. When the last smoky wisps blew away from that scarred, age-old battlefield, the glowing embers of Moose tracks remained, emblazoned on the pool's placid surface.
