The spotlights will be on the Dartmouth men's hockey team Saturday night at Thompson Arena--literally.
Barring a collapse of Boston Red Sox proportions, it appears the Princeton Tigers, ranked No. 7 in the nation, will win their eighth straight Ivy League field hockey title. The race for second place and the outside chance of an NCAA bid, however, remains wide open. Dartmouth (10-4, 2-2 Ivy) can take a huge step toward that second spot this afternoon with a win at Harvard (7-5, 3-1 Ivy).
The Dartmouth women's soccer team will be riding two rousing victories in the last week as it heads to Cambridge to face Harvard Saturday at 12. A win against the well-respected Crimson squad would bolster its position in both the Ivy standings and national spotlight.
On paper it seems that Dartmouth's matchup with Harvard this Saturday should be a blowout. Harvard is unbeaten in the Ivy League and stands at 8-2 overall, while Dartmouth is winless in League play and is barely keeping its head above water at 4-6. However, you can bet that it won't be the match you see on paper.
The Dartmouth women's volleyball team heads into this weekend's contests at Leede Arena against Princeton (tonight at 7) and Penn (tomorrow at 4) with a 7-9 overall record and 2-4 record in the Ivy League.
Dartmouth head coach John Lyons summed up his team's dismal situation with a simple simile.
Well, the season has just passed its halfway point and already it has been quite a ride. After the sobering experience of the September 11 attacks, Dartmouth's first three weeks represented the headiest days the program has seen in years. From the aborted but impressive comeback against New Hampshire in Week 1 to the one-point heartbreaker the next week against Penn, people were talking with unbridled optimism about this team's potential even before the Big Green picked up its first W against Yale in Week 3.
By far the biggest game in the Ivies this weekend is Brown against Penn. The 3-2 Bears, owners of the most potent scoring offense in the league, look to even up their Ivy record (2-1) with the 3-0 Quakers' who are 5-0 overall. The key matchup in the game should be between the two big, bruising running backs: Michael Malan of Brown and Kris Ryan of Pennsylvania. Although the Quakers certainly have a better defense statistically, they have yet to face a back as accomplished as Malan combined with a quarterback as competent as Brown's standout, Kyle Rowley.
After several solid performances from the Dartmouth varsity crews at the Head of the Charles Regatta last weekend down in Cambridge, the novice crews make their collegiate debuts here in Hanover tomorrow in the annual Dartmouth Invitational.
When asked about today's cross country Heptagonals competition, which determines the Ivy League men's and women's champions, junior standout Tom McArdle said simply: "I intend to go in there and win, with anything less I will be disappointed."

I seem to remember not too long ago a whole lot of dirt being kicked up by something called the Student Life Initiative. Now, for those of you who are new to the College or whose attention span has been ruined by too many mind-altering substances or too many boring econ lectures or too many late-night games of pong or too many poorly-constructed run-on sentences written by bitter, hackneyed columnists who always drone on about the same stupid subject, let me give you a brief synopsis of the SLI. The SLI is, as I see it, a three-pronged platform that, if implemented properly and efficiently, will turn Dartmouth into the greatest Ivy League institution in the world (north of Cambridge, of course).
As individuals nationwide struggle to formulate an appropriate response to the Sept. 11 attacks, Donald Jolly '04 finds his answer in a large placard hung around his neck that says "Will Work for Peace."
Scaffolding, cranes and hard-hat workers are now a de facto part of Dartmouth's landscape, and the continued construction projects have left some students wondering -- will the sound of clattering metal ever cease on this supposedly quaint, quiet college campus?
With an endowment of over $2.4 billion, Dartmouth has an obligation to incorporate social responsibility into its investment decisions, according to four panelists who spoke at yesterday's Collis Community Hour.
A history of tensions with the West and a lack of democracy have led to the current unrest in the Muslim world, Indian writer and newspaper editor M.J. Akbar said yesterday in a speech.
Experienced fans of the Dave Matthews Band know to expect a good show when they enter an arena to hear the group play. The fans going into the United Center in Chicago on December 19, 1998 thought they knew what to expect. "Live in Chicago 12.19.98," the latest concert release from the DMB, was recorded that night.
Every athletic team at every college, university or high school across the country is comprised of a gamut of personalities. The first to come to mind are the visible characters: players, coaches and fans. These are the game winners and goal scorers, the strategists and the whipping boys, the encouragers and the critics. Regardless of what sport is being played, the obvious cast of characters maintains a rather consistent formula. They put forth the effort, time and devotion that is the driving force behind every great team, game in and game out, season after season.
