Fresh off the men's tennis team's 4-3 loss to Loyola Marymount University, Alex de Chatellus '13 sat down with me to talk tennis, pump-up songs and the similarities between choosing a doubles partner and a life companion.
Not much compares to the excitement of a live hockey game, where the violence on the ice engenders a fever in the stands. For Dartmouth fans, though, a televised game can be a similarly thrilling experience, as our athletics only rarely hit any major broadcasts.

In the 10 games played, the Big Green recorded big wins over Akron University, the United States Military Academy, Long Island University, Grinnell University and the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, but suffered close losses to Indiana University and Northwestern University.
Where did this term go? It seems like it was only yesterday when I was nervously writing my first column for The Dartmouth and the NFL was still playing football instead of fighting over the distribution of $9 billion. Over the past 10 weeks, so much has happened in the world of sports. The Green Bay Packers earned back the honor of Titletown, USA. Dwayne Wade, LeBron James and that other guy have finally hit their stride. Baseball free agents have settled into their new million-dollar mansions, and college football played another bowl season without a playoff system (sigh).
The men's tennis team's season is in full swing. The Big Green (7-2) swept two home games against Boston University and Fairleigh Dickinson University this weekend, winning both by 7-0 margins. With spring season on the horizon, I sat down to chat with Bryan Song '11. Song did not make the team as a freshman, and took three consecutive off-terms in a bid to improve his game. He returned during his sophomore year and made the team as a walk-on. Disclaimer: Song insisted on conducting the interview in the third person in order to emphasize the importance of the team as a unified whole.

Just two seasons after joining the Big Green football coaching staff, offensive line coach Keith Clark was named the team's offensive coordinator on Thursday in an e-mail sent by Rick Bender, Dartmouth's director of varsity athletic communications. Clark replaces former offensive coordinator Jim Pry, who departed the team in February over "philosophical differences" with head coach Buddy Teevens and the team, The Dartmouth previously reported.
In the early onset of the game, Dartmouth (22-11-0, 15-7-0 ECAC) had several scoring chances to give itself the lead, but the Big Green could not put the puck behind Cornell junior goalie Amanda Mazzotta. Dartmouth hit a shot hit off the Cornell post, while another shot missed the open net.

The Dartmouth men's and women's lacrosse teams opened their seasons on a freshly-plowed Scully-Fahey Field this past weekend. The women's team (1-0) used a strong performance by midfielder Sarah Plumb '12 to defeat rival University of New Hampshire, 9-5. Plumb finished the game with a goal, an assist, five ground balls and three caused turnovers. Dartmouth goaltender Kristen Giovanniello '14 made seven saves in her collegiate debut. Kat Collins '11, Kirsten Goldberg '12 and Greta Meyer '11 each contributed two goals in the winning effort.

If you've been paying attention to ESPN recently, you know that it's trade season. The NBA trade deadline just passed while the NHL's is today, and big name stars like Carmelo Anthony have changed teams. All of the deadline talk got me thinking -- what if trades were allowed in collegiate sports? College teams are just like professional teams in many ways. Some are in the rebuilding phase and some are just a player away from winning a title. So what if teams could trade players to one another? Or even better, what if teams could trade away players for a couple of new recruits?
I sat down with men's hockey assistant captains Adam Estoclet '11 and Evan Stephens '11 before their game on Saturday night to chat about the season and reflect on their time at Dartmouth. The men's hockey team which is currently ranked 18th in the nation wrapped up its regular season at home this weekend. Estoclet recorded his 100th career point in the win against St. Lawrence, becoming just the 35th player in Dartmouth history to do so. The Big Green, which also celebrated its nine graduating seniors this weekend, finished with a winning record for the first time since the 2005-2006 season.
