Women's cross country ranked 13th in nation

By Kenneth Y. Lee | September 30, 1993

Living up to their high pre-season national ranking, the women's cross country team continues to build upon last year's successes behind the strong nucleus of Meegan Larsen '95, Kristin Cobb '95 and Maribel Sanchez '96 and are now ranked as the country's 13th best, a position shared with rival Cornell. Coach Ellen O'Neil described the team as "more excited than nervous" about their national standing. She noted that an Eastern College Athletic Conference Championship and qualifying for the NCAAs remain the team's ultimate goals this year, as well as improving on last year's fifth place finish at the Heptagonal Championship. "If we keep running as we have been, and improving as we have with each race, I think we have a very good chance," Captain Tori Knox '94 said.

Women's soccer improves with age

By Brad Parks | September 23, 1993

Consolation was not the order of the day for the Big Green as the horn blast that ended the women's soccer team's 2-1 overtime loss to the University of Connecticut echoed over Chase Field, Saturday. Maybe a year or two ago, Coach Steve Swanson would have been quick with praise for what was otherwise an outstanding performance against the Northeast Region's second-ranked team. These days, though, the women's soccer program has moved beyond picking up style points and putting up a good fight against the top teams. "We've gotten to the point where there are no more moral losses," Swanson said.

Football still aiming for title

By Brad Parks | September 22, 1993

The sound resonated from Philadelphia to Hanover and wherever Dartmouth football fans found themselves late Saturday afternoon at the conclusion of the Big Green's 10-6 loss to the University of Pennsylvania. It was not a comet, an earthquake or even the construction on Collis. Instead, the thud that shook the Dartmouth football team right to the bottom of its three straight Ivy League titles was the crashing of a lot of lofty expectations for the 1993 season. "We came into the season with an optimistic view point.

Men's soccer on tap today

By Ally Hyun | September 22, 1993

The Big Green men's soccer team hosts the University of Vermont today at Chase Field. Game time is 4 p.m. Dartmouth played its first game of the season on Sunday, recording a 4-1 victory over Providence College. The Big Green hopes to improve on their success of last year when they captured the Ivy League title with a record of six wins and one loss. The 1992 team made it all the way to the quarterfinals of the NCAA tournament before losing to the eventual national champion, the University of Virginia, 3-0. The team returns all but two members of last year's squad, including All-Ivy Ian Saward '95 and the 1992 Ivy League Rookie of the Year, David Moran, '96. Moran notched one goal and one assist during the Providence game. As a result of Dartmouth's talent and depth, the ISAA Pre-Season Poll ranked the Big Green 12th in the nation, the only Ivy League school in the top-25. "The problem [with our ranking] is forgetting how we got there," Coach Bobby Clark said.

Football stumbles against Penn

By Alexander R. Edlich | September 22, 1993

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 18 ' On a quest for a fourth consecutive Ivy League title, the Dartmouth football team started off on the wrong foot today, losing to the University of Pennsylvania,10-6. The Big Green, led by senior captain and quarterback Jay Fiedler, failed to come up with the big plays typical of the past two successful years and were stopped cold by the strong Quaker defense that repeatedly broke through the offensive line. Throughout the steady light rain here, Penn running back Terrance Stokes was like a bad itch, aggravating Dartmouth's defensive line for 124 yards and one touchdown ' a slashing 19-yard run that accounted for Penn's only touchdown of the game at the end of the second quarter. From Dartmouth's first possession on, the Penn defensive line harassed and hurried Fiedler, forcing him to throw early or scramble out of the pocket unprotected where he was sacked and tripped up for losses of yards. While Penn only had 56 more offensive yards than the Big Green, the Quakers dominated on the ground, piling up 151 yards by land to just 34 yards on 33 frustrating carries for Dartmouth, including just eight yards in the first half. Early Lead Penn scored first early in the second quarter off a picturesque 42-yard field goal by Andy Glockner at 12:01.

Women's basketball coach Jaqueline Hullah left the College last week to become head coach of the women's basketball program at Arizona State University.
