The men's tennis team traveled to the ECAC Invitational in Boston, Mass., last weekend, managing to post a win against Dartmouth in the first round. The Red was not so successful against Brown, however, losing to the eventual tournament champion in the second round of play. The Red was seeded no. 7 in a field of 16, and came away with an important Ivy League win against 10th-seeded Dartmouth, squeaking by 4-3 in a very tight match. Sophomore Zach Gallin led the team both on the court and in intensity, pumping up the Red before he won the match that clinched the victory. Senior Pat Hagan spoke of Gallin's contributions. "He really stepped it up," Hagan said. "He's had to step it up to number one singles, and he has. He's just a tremendous player and leader. He was very vocal after we dropped the doubles match, and he came up big to clinch the match for us." In the second round of matches, the Red dropped a match 6-1 to a very talented Brown squad. Seeded no. 2 in the tournament, Brown lost only two matches in four rounds on the way to an impressive tournament championship victory. Senior Stefan Paulovic talked about the Brown match. "Sometimes there's some [consolation] in losing to the winner," he said. "They're a great team, and it's nice to see that they won." Hagan had similar thoughts. "Going in, I thought we had a chance to win [against Brown], and I still think we have a chance to win," Hagan added. "They're an excellent team, and it gives us something to shoot for as a team. Winning against teams in the Ivy League is a goal for us, and that makes Ivy games the focus of our season." Looking to the future, both seniors saw positives in the team. Paulovic added, "We're a young team. We have [Pat and me] and a bunch of sophomores. So, we're very pleased with this finish. I think it was our best finish there in 15 years, so to be able to win where we did was a good step for this team." Hagan spoke similarly. "Sometimes it helps to be as young as we are. It's promising. They don't know who they're supposed to lose to. These are the first dual matches for some of these guys, and it's a different experience." Both players were surprised to see no. 1 seed Harvard fall in the semifinals to Yale. Hagan commented on the results. "Yale really gets up for Harvard, they always do. Every year they're pumped to play them, and it shows. I don't know if we have any personal rivalries like that, but we're a young team. This tournament was probably the highlight of our fall schedule." Looking forward into upcoming matches, Hagan continued, "Army is our biggest rivalry right now, and they're coming up soon. Beating them and beating the Ivy teams is our goal for the rest of the season."Archived article by Matt Nassr

Genius is rare. So is good television. The two intersect in executive producer David E. Kelley's programs, which are, in my opinion, some of the only ones worth watching these days. If there are any fans out there of Kelley's canceled show Picket Fences (a show which incorporated hospital, courtroom, and family drama, Law and Order-type scenarios, and mysticism in each episode) you will be happy to know that you can still catch Fyvesh Finkel, who played Douglas Wambaugh, the infamous defense attorney, on Kelley's newest series, Boston Public. Finkel portrays a high school history teacher whose latest faux pas earned him the epithet of "Shakespeare Bigot," on this show, which has a great deal of potential. Not your typical high school series, it is a far cry from Dawson's Creek, or anything of that nature. In fact, it shares more similarities with Kelley's legal drama The Practice than it does with shows in its genre. The school depicted is not your typical high school. Kelley blends media-documented realities such as Columbine-inspired situations with exaggerated scenarios such as a student spiking a teacher's coffee with Ecstasy and a suicide club. There's also a Daria-esque character in whose hands the fate of the school seems to rest, as she maintains a website which defames a new student, teacher, or administrator each minute. The school has attempted unsuccessfully to sue this student a number of times, which provides Kelley with an opportunity to enter into the familiar terrain of the courtroom to portray some interesting legal battles. Each week, the show wrestles with right to privacy and First Amendment issues, as teachers cite Supreme Court cases as rapidly as the attorneys on The Practice, and students flirt with the line between freedom of expression and "indecency." It is precisely the blend of harsh realism with borderline fantasy, present in almost all of Kelley's work, that lends this show its power. We can escape from our world for a brief moment and yet still be able to identify with the characters and situations. Not only can Kelley transform a stale genre into something that is truly innovative (as he is doing in Boston Public) and create something that is sui generis (as he did in Picket Fences) but, he can also create such divergent programs that it would seem impossible for the same mind to have produced them. Witness The Practice and Ally McBeal. That Kelley can move from something as light, whimsical, and ridiculous as Ally to the somber and intense Practice is remarkable. And that he can be successful in both areas, having won Best Drama and Comedy in the same year, is even more so. The Practice was labeled "one of the best shows you're not watching" a few years ago, and I should hope that that has changed. The ethical dilemmas, societal problems, and intriguing legal situations, as well as the emotional charge that pervades every episode, make for an incredibly powerful viewing experience. And, perhaps more importantly, something that can be said of The Practice, as well as the majority of Kelley's acclaimed shows, is that they make you think, which is a remarkable feat for television.Archived article by Lisa Dorfman
