By Kelvin Ang
Kenny Nims hasn't slept well since Syracuse's Saturday afternoon loss to Loyola. With the Orange trailing by just one goal in the dying seconds of the game, Nims collected a pass near the Greyhounds' cage and fired a high shot their goaltender Alex Peaty saved.

Oh, this wasn't Marcellus or Manlius or Mattydale. It was Manley Field House, where the descendents of Johannes Gutenberg, in its one hundred and fourth manifestation, brutally perished for the eighth year uninterrupted to the byproducts of KDKA-Pittsburgh, all the while hoping a loathsome locale deviation would manifest a long-lost merry outcome.
