Three years ago, rosters were filled with '14s excited to begin their Ivy League athletic careers and represent the Big Green on the court, on the field and in the water. But as seniors, we notice how many of our classmates are no longer a part of the varsity teams they were recruited for, as many rosters are heavily populated by underclassmen.
On a Wednesday night that term, Ohene-Adu and his band, which included three other members of the Class of 2014, set up a show with the Soul Scribes in One Wheelock.
This week, I sat down with men's soccer goalie James Hickok '17, fresh off his Ivy League rookie of the week honors. In the last week, Hickok went 2-0 in the net and had an assist in a 2-0 win over the University of Massachusetts. This interview has been edited for clarity.
The Big Green women claimed the top individual spot behind a dominating performance from Abbey D'Agostino '14, who won by nearly 52 seconds. On the six-kilometer Hanover Country Club Course, D'Agostino showed once again why she will be considered the runner to chase this season.
Princeton University, Harvard University, Yale University and Columbia University ranked higher, placing first through fourth in the rankings, respectively.

Seventeens and transfer students, welcome to Dartmouth! The vast majority of you have just finished trips and are ready to embark on your next few years at the College on the Hill. Only two years ago, I was in the same spot as all of you in a new place wondering what I had gotten myself into. And while our paths to Dartmouth may differ, the campus we will share over the next few years is the same. Please allow me to indulge myself by telling you some lessons I have learned along the way.
Although Dartmouth students are doubtless familiar with other types of basements and tables, many remain unfamiliar with the 8-Ball Hall Game Room, the newest addition to the scene. From students waiting for a meal to those looking for alternative evening plans, 8-Ball Hall offers entertainment and open spaces for anyone who stops by.
The gala began with a short video highlighting the accomplishments of Big Green athletics this year, notably 10 teams finishing in the top half of the Ivy League and nine teams nationally ranked in the top 25 this season.
Last season, the Big Green men (5-0-1 Ivy North) advanced to this point before losing to Davenport University in the semifinals.
Dartmouth returns seven defensive starters from last season, when the team went 6-4 and tied for third in the Ivy League at 4-3. Linebackers Bronson Green '14 and Michael Runger '14 and safety Garrett Waggoner '13 will anchor this year's defense. Last year, Runger led the Ivy League with 98 tackles while Waggoner earned first-team All-Ivy honors.
The team qualified for nationals for the second consecutive year following an impressive performance at the ICSA National Championship semifinals, hosted by Old Dominion University last weekend. The team finished fourth in the Eastern Division, just three points behind third-place Roger Williams University. Dartmouth's A and B-teams performed incredibly well, each notching at least eight top-six finishes in the 13 race events.
For Dartmouth, this weekend also marked the start of something new: the drive for Ivy League Championship number two.
This week I sat down with Joe Purritano '16 to talk about season highlights and what he thought about "42".
For some of us, it's hard to imagine a time when we weren't Dartmouth students. No matter how deep your loyalty to this college runs, we would do well to remember that it's just one part of our identity. This week, we explore the challenges of feeling depressed at Dartmouth, opportunities to explore the Upper Valley concert scene and balancing employment with being a full-time student.
The game started off back and forth, with both teams alternating the first six goals in the opening 12 minutes of play. The Catamounts pulled ahead by two, but the Big Green was quick to answer back and net the score at 5-5 with 5:30 left in the half. Falling behind by two, Dartmouth once again responded with a pair of goals to end the first half tied at seven.
"We are extremely pleased and proud of the team's performance," head coach Bob Whalen said. "Even though our entire preseason practice was indoors, we played strong fundamental baseball. The pitchers threw strikes, the players swung bats aggressively and overall, we played well in close games against good teams."
Congressional obstructionism in Washington is hardly newsworthy anymore. Regardless of political affiliation, it is difficult to dispute that Republicans have almost wholly dedicated themselves to stymieing Democratic legislation backed by President Barack Obama. This is not necessarily a bad thing. There exist legitimate and significant ideological differences between the two parties, and Republican members of Congress have the legal right to oppose any efforts with which they disagree. In fact, more than a few of these members were elected by their constituencies in direct protest of the president's policy positions. However, there is a thin line separating ideological dissent from reflexive opposition under the guise of maintaining values. Recent events have provided us with a shining example of the latter, with Israel serving as the principal issue at stake.
The top-seeded Big Green defeated Amherst (14-9) 9-0 on Friday night in the opening round of the cup. Dartmouth dominated the contest, suffering only one set loss in all nine matches. Co-captain Corey Schafer '13, Melina Turk '14, Nina Scott '16, co-captain Sarah Loucks '13, Kate Nimmo '14, Tori Dewey '16, Lydie McKenzie '16 and Helena Darling '15 each won perfect 3-0 matches while Oona Morris '15 rallied to win 3-1 and complete the 9-0 sweep.
Coming off an eventful and snow-filled Winter Carnival, the Dartmouth ski team competed this past weekend at the Middlebury Carnival and placed second overall with 859 points, following the University of Vermont's 933 points and beating third-place Middlebury by nearly 100 points.
