Good morning! I had this vivid dream about the nation’s top water polo recruit announcing his decision by throwing three balls – each with the logo of a prospective school – at a goal. Two hit the post and fall away. The one that goes in the goal is the team he’s committing to. I told my wife about this dream. Her reply: “But what if the wrong ball goes into the goal?”

Here are your headlines:
