This week Austin and I took the competition to our peers, and by peers, we mean fellow students who compete for intramural glory and can’t pass muster. We were excited for the reprieve from facing the grind of varsity athletes in their sports of choice, returning to the place from which we started our climb to becoming Rec League Legends. Recording some time in the Moosilauke League is also a great way to boost our community service stats.

After a 7-4 start, the team has now lost five in a row as it heads into the teeth of its Ancient Eight schedule, preparing to host the University of Pennsylvania and Princeton University next weekend.

The women’s ice hockey team gained a critical four points this weekend, defeating Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and Union College, both in come-from-behind fashion. The team now enjoys a three-game winning streak, which started with a 4-2 win over Colgate University on Jan. 18. The 2-1 win against Rensselaer (10-13-2, 6-7-1 ECAC) marked the second time that Dartmouth (7-13-1, 6-8-1 ECAC) has beaten the Engineers this season. Union College (8-17-1, 3-11-0 ECAC) won the two teams’ earlier meeting this season, but the Big Green took Saturday’s game 4-3 after surmounting a third period deficit.

Last week, the Legends issued a New Year’s proclamation (way more intense than any old resolution) that 2014 would be a year of victory for the Legends. We would put fall term’s near-losses behind us and think only about our future as the premier intramural champions on this campus — or at least the only ones who take the time to write about it each week.

The women’s ice hockey team tore up the ice this weekend with a fierce 5-4 win over Yale University and a 3-3 tie with Brown University. Both games were very physical, with 19 combined penalties. The chippy play led to two back-and-forth contests with a total of six lead changes. The games were crucial for the Big Green women (4-12-1, 3-7-1 ECAC), who vaulted to ninth in the ECAC standings, just two points behind the Bulldogs (6-10-1, 4-5-1 ECAC) and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (8-11-12, 4-5-1 ECAC), now just on place from playoff position.
