Late-game heroics lift Crusaders to overtime win over Big Green

By Jordan Rose | October 11, 2006

Asafu Suzuki / The Dartmouth Staff Despite some strong play in the latter half of regulation, the Dartmouth field hockey team suffered a tough loss Monday evening, falling to Holy Cross 2-1 in overtime at Scully-Fahey field. During the seven-on-seven overtime frame, the Crusaders (10-3) held the ball in the Big Green end before Tara Welch picked up a ball in front of the cage in the 18th minute and fired her 12th shot of the contest past a diving Ashley Heist '08 to secure a Holy Cross victory. The game was played evenly for the first 70 minutes, but the stalemate was due more to a lack of execution on the part of both squads, especially in the first half.

By Allie Lowe | October 11, 2006

Student Assembly approved legislation endorsing the Committee on Standards Task Force Report at Tuesday night's meeting over the objection of some members who worry that the report's recommendations create barriers for victims of sexual assault. The report, which was sponsored by Adam Shpeen '07 and the Academic Affairs Committee, sets forth eight recommendations to the Dean of the College based on the research of a task force that was created last spring. Among the report's recommendations, two sparked debate among Assembly members -- one allowing direct questioning and one raising COS' burden of proof. The report recommends that the College institute procedures that allow the accused party to ask witnesses and their accusers questions during COS hearings.
