Men’s basketball begins season on road

By Kelly Chen | November 11, 2014

When now-captain Gabas Maldunas ’15 tore his ACL last January, the Big Green had to play without its then-leading scorer and rebounder. But the team managed to go 5-8 down the stretch, thanks to standout performances by Alex Mitola ’16 and Connor Boehm ’16. The team’s 12-16 record was its best in 15 years.

By Kourtney Kawano | November 10, 2014

In its final two away matches of the 2014 season, the women’s volleyball team suffered back-to-back sweeps to the University of Pennsylvania, 25-22, 25-16, 25-21, and Princeton University, 25-18, 25-19, 28-26, to extend its losing streak to six. This has been a season of streaks for the Big Green (13-10, 4-8 Ivy), who raced out to a 11-2, 2-0 Ivy start before dropping eight of its last 10 contests, including a 1-6 record on the road.

An overtime goal by Tim O’Brien ’16 upset defending national champion Union Friday. Last season, the Big Green lost to Union 3-2 ion the road and 7-2 at home.

Men’s hockey upsets Union, falls to RPI

By Gayne Kalustian | November 10, 2014

When defending national champions Union College notched three unanswered goals against the Big Green on Friday, the team threw a challenge down on the ice. Union dared the green and white to show up, score a goal, defend itself. What the team did not know was the then-No. 8 Dutchmen (5-4-1, 0-3-1 ECAC) set the stage for an incredible four-goal comeback victory by the Big Green (1-1-1, 1-1-1 ECAC).

Any Given Thursday

By Rich Shen and Austin Lim | November 5, 2014

The Pawtucket PawSox, Providence Bruins, Maine Red Claws. What do those teams mean to you? Probably not much. These development teams, however, provide the building blocks for three of the four major sports we enjoy today. Coming out of college, many players are not yet ready to jump into the highest level of their respective sport. They therefore go through a grooming process, obtaining professional experience and working with professional coaches to refine their skills until they are ready to make the final jump to the top tier of their sport. By now, you might be wondering: if these development leagues are so important, why doesn’t professional football — America’s most popular sport by far — have one?

Akiko Okuda ’15 went 2-1 over the weekend, part of Dartmouth’s dominating performance at the Big Green Invite.

By Ellie Gonzalez | November 4, 2014

The team (5-11, 3-3 Ivy) also fell to the University of New Hampshire on Sunday for its fourth straight loss.

By Gayne Kalustian | November 3, 2014

Dartmouth skated onto the ice in the second period of Saturday’s game against Harvard University and finished off a penalty kill — a notable accomplishment, as in the team’s exhibition matches, the Big Green went 2-6 on penalty kills.

Football falls 23-12 to Harvard at home

By Brett Drucker | November 2, 2014

It was billed as Dartmouth’s biggest game since the two met as undefeated teams in 1997. The game unfolded differently from the 24-0 contest 17 years prior, but ended in the same result: a Crimson victory. Dartmouth (5-2, 3-1 Ivy) fell short of achieving its first undefeated Ivy League season since 1996, and Harvard (7-0, 4-0 Ivy) managed to parry another challenge from the developing Big Green squad, 23-12.
