Editors' Note: Former and current editors, columnists and reporters of The Dartmouth Sports section from the Class of 2009 were asked to reflect on their experience with Dartmouth sports during the last four years.
The Dartmouth women's tennis team traveled to Winston-Salem, N.C., for its first two matches of the season, falling 5-2 to the University of Richmond on Saturday and 7-0 to No. 42 Wake Forest University on Sunday.
its home opener to Colgate University on Saturday night, 65-60. Alex Barnett '09 continued to lead the team in scoring with 22 points, his second 20-point performance in as many games, but it was not enough to take down the Raiders, who made 52.4 percent of their shots on the night.
Andrew Olsen '11 notched what would be the eventual game-winner in the 19th minute of the game, making a great play to volley home an attempted clearance by a Brown defender. The goal was Olsen's third game-winner of the year and was all the team would need to capture its 11th victory of the season.
Servis had 124 yards and one touchdown on nine catches and Galligan grabbed five balls for 125 yards and another touchdown.
Three members of the men's golf team traveled to Portsmouth, R.I. to compete in the University of Rhode Island Northeast Invitational Tournament at the Green Valley Country Club this past weekend.
Dartmouth's men's and women's golf teams traveled to New Jersey this past weekend to compete in the Ivy League golf championships.
This past weekend, the Dartmouth men's golf team traveled to Providence, R.I., to compete in the New England Division I Men's Golf Championship. The team finished in the middle of the field of 13 teams, earning fifth-place honors with the solid performances of Davis Mullany '10 and captain Jamie Wallace '08.
The Dartmouth men's and women's golf teams began their seasons in tough conditions this past weekend when the men's team traveled to the Yale men's Spring Open in New Haven, Conn., and the women traveled to Cape Cod Country Club in Hatchville, Mass., to compete against Harvard and Brown in a triangular match.
As the winter snow continued to pile up in Hanover over spring break, Dartmouth's men's and women's Ultimate Frisbee teams migrated south in search of better weather and stiff competition. They succeeded in finding tough opponents, but good weather was hard to come by, as one of the teams' two major tournaments was cut short by tornado warnings.
Dartmouth (4-4-1, 2-4-1 ECACHL) came into the game having won big over Thanksgiving break against the Bentley Falcons, 5-1, in a game that was as lopsided as the score seemed. Harvard (6-2-1, 5-2-1 ECACHL) came in having tied Yale 3-3 last Wednesday, but also having knocked off traditional Hockey East power Boston University 2-1 during the preceding week.
Bentley (5-8-1, 5-3-1 Atlantic Hockey) was coming off of a weekend split against conference foe Army and had yet to win a game against non-league opponents. The Falcons came to Hanover in hopes of changing their non-conference fortunes but again discovered their opponent to be too strong.
Dartmouth (3-3-1, 2-3-1 ECACHL) now stands in fifth place in the ECAC Hockey standings, seven points behind league-leading Clarkson.
Friday night, the Big Green relied on a quick start to put early pressure on the Dutchmen, scoring three goals in the first period. However, the first goal proved to be all that was necessary, as goalie and assistant captain Mike Devine '08 recorded 29 saves to earn his first shutout of the season.
Dartmouth (2-1-0, 1-1-0 ECACHL) is coming off of a weekend split, defeating St. Lawrence (3-5-0, 0-3-0 ECACHL) 2-1 last Friday night but dropping a tough contest, 4-3, to league-leading Clarkson (6-2-0, 3-0-0 ECACHL) on Saturday.
Last year, Clarkson (6-2-0, 3-0-0 ECACHL) won the ECAC postseason tournament while St. Lawrence (3-5-0, 0-3-0 ECACHL) had the best record during the regular season. The two teams were picked by the coaches of the ECACHL to finish first and third respectively this year.
As the brightly colored foliage begins to fall from the trees and cold winter weather descends upon Hanover, the action at Thompson Arena is just heating up. Friday night the women's team began their defense of last year's ECAC Hockey League championship with a 4-3 overtime win over Vermont. Yesterday, the Big Green men also played Vermont to start their 2007-2008 season.
The Head of the Charles is the largest two-day regatta in the world, with some 7,500 rowers competing each year in 55 different events. It is run over a 3.2-mile course from the Boston University DeWolfe Boathouse near the BU Bridge upstream to just past the Eliot Bridge. Crews row one at time against the clock and the times are compared to determine the "Head of the Charles," the best crew in the regatta. The course winds around a couple of bends in the river, making it an interesting race for the coxswains. Last year the event is estimated to have drawn a crowd of over 300,000 spectators over the two days of competition.
The Dartmouth women's volleyball team (12-6, 5-3 Ivy) had two more pitfalls this weekend as the team faced its toughest Ivy League competition to date and lost close games on Friday to Penn (12-7, 5-2 Ivy) and Saturday to Princeton (15-3, 7-0 Ivy).
Big Green football (1-4, 1-1 Ivy) hopes to improve on its form of late and turn its season around against Columbia after tough road losses to Yale and Holy Cross. A return to Memorial Field very well may be the added boost the team needs as it has played well at home this year, losing a heartbreaker in overtime to Colgate and defeating Penn. The Homecoming game is Saturday at 12:30 p.m.
