Although the weather right now would seem to indicate otherwise, Dartmouth's spring sports teams are already gearing up for their respective seasons. Here's a brief look at the expectations and outlooks for each team:
on the romance-intolerant Dartmouth campus
For a program that has a great deal of history, with four consecutive NCAA appearances from 1941-4 followed by three more appearances from 1956-9, the Big Green has fallen on hard times in the past half-century.
In the realm of men's sports across the nation, two sports reign supreme in terms of coverage, attendance and interest: football and basketball.

The Dartmouth ski team began its 2008 season this week in the shadow of last season's championship run.

The Dartmouth rugby football club concluded its successful fall campaign with a second-place finish in the Northeast Final Four, clinching one of the two spots from the Northeast for the national tournament to be held in April. In the first game, the ruggers ran all over Brockport 46-7, but in the second game the team lost a tough, physical battle to rival Army 3-16.
Last season, Big Green men's basketball finished the season with a 9-18 overall record, the only Ivy failing to achieve double-digit victories. Combine that with a 4-10 record within the Ivies, ahead of only Princeton (2-12), and it seems like the only way to go this year is up.
When Planet Aid, a national non-profit organization, placed clothing collection boxes in the Upper Valley and Vermont, it didn't expect controversy.

Like many, I have emotional scars from high school. There was, of course, a gaggle of rabid ribbon-wearing girls that wreaked havoc on my life. They were brutally ridiculous; I was helpless.
We stood in the foyer of Panarchy, staring at a patch of brown water damage on the ceiling. "People think that's where a ghost has been," Panarchy member Caroline Brandt '09 told me. Cocking our heads to the side, we searched for the profile of a face. After rotating a couple of times, I finally saw it; a long nose and an eerily faded eye appeared in the plaster. "It looks like water damage to me," Brandt said.
His green Converse high tops have white laces. His green-and-white striped socks are pulled up over his green-and-white striped wind pants, which are layered underneath a pair of athletic shorts -- one leg green, the other white. On the back of his white t-shirt, in green letters, is the slogan: "One College. One Tradition. Victory." Green leis adorn his neck, and a green cowbell hangs from a Dartmouth ribbon. His cheeks are painted with white and green stripes. A green bandana holds back a shoulder-length wig -- one half dyed white, the other green. He is screaming. And screaming.

The HSB festival, funded by venture capitalist and amateur banjo player Warren Hellman, began in 2001 as a strictly bluegrass festival.

This year's lineup included names like John Prine, David Grisman, Bela Fleck and the Flecktones, Rickey Skaggs, Bruce Hornsby and Emmylou Harris.
Listen up, freshmen: the rumors are true. You may, in fact, actually get laid in college. And if casual, inebriated encounters are what you're after, thank your lucky stars you were rejected from your first choice school. I'm kidding, of course. But don't cream your pants just yet, and I say this with tender empathy: you're still a total novice and awkward as f*ck.
The temperature Saturday evening dropped below 50 degrees, weather more typically associated with football than soccer.
