Men’s soccer meets expectations in win over Hofstra

|

The men’s soccer team notched its first win of the season on Sunday afternoon, taking down the Hofstra University Pride (2-2-2) on the road 2-1. The game was an important victory for the squad, halting a two-game losing skid that began the season and suggestive of the Big Green’s potential this year in the Ivy League.

The Big Green Season Primer

|

As the new school year comes to Hanover, we at The Dartmouth wanted to acclimate you to what should be an exciting slate of sports action this fall. In this season primer, we’ll introduce you to some fall teams and offer our thoughts on what the season has in store.

One-on-One

|

This week, I sat down with Kendall Kraus ’15, the co-captain of the women’s soccer team, before the team’s Sunday’s win against St. John’s University. So far this season, the Big Green is 1-2-1, with losses to No. 14 University of Portland and to the University of Washington. A 0-0 tie against Albany University last week and a 2-0 win over St. John’s University on Sunday extended the team’s unbeaten streak at Burnham Field to an impressive 14 games over the last three seasons. So far this season, Kraus has not registered a point, but has three shots on net.

Volleyball goes 3-1 in tournament, moves to 6-1 on season

|

The volleyball team had a successful weekend at the Jack Kaiser Tournament in Queens, New York, where it placed third out of five teams after two hard-fought wins on Saturday afternoon to earn a 3-1 tournament record. The Big Green (6-1, 0-0 Ivy) won three matches in five sets, going the distance to defeat St. John’s University, St. Francis College in Brooklyn and the University of New Hampshire. The Big Green’s lone setback of the tournament — and the season so far — came in three sets at the hands of Fresno State University.

Men’s, women’s cross country dominate at home

|

The men’s and women’s cross country teams entered this season without some familiar faces — stars Abbey D’Agostino ’14 and Will Geoghegan ’14 graduated in June, and women’s head coach Mark Coogan left the team for New Balance. But on Saturday, the teams did not skip a beat, cruising to victories in the Dartmouth Invitational. The women finished one-two-three-four-six for a near perfect point total of 16. Brown University came in second with 51 points. The men finished with 21 points, well ahead of Brown’s 46. The wins were the first for both teams at the Dartmouth Invitational since 2011.

Big Green coaches experience considerable turnover

|

Athletes from the Class of 2018 are not the only new faces in the Big Green sports scene this year. Six of Dartmouth’s 34 varsity teams have new head coaches, including fall sports women’s cross country, women’s soccer and women’s and men’s heavyweight crew.

Freshman Athlete Preview: One-on-One with Daniel Hazlett

|

This week, The Dartmouth sat down with incoming men’s soccer player Daniel Hazlett ’18. In his senior year, Hazlett led the Hanover High School men’s soccer team to an undefeated season and a Division I state championship. He was also named the Gatorade New Hampshire Boys Soccer Player of the Year for the fall season. He’ll join the varsity soccer team after his Dartmouth Outing Club freshman trip: hiking three, through the White Mountains.

Freshman Athlete Preview: Ahbe looks to make an impact on the ice

|

After a win in the 2014 IIHF Ice Hockey Under-18 Women’s World Championship in Hungary, the U.S. team gathered in the locker room and danced — to Miley Cyrus’ hit “Party in the USA.” The team, forward Brooke Ahbe ’18 said, was determined to celebrate in style on its way to an eventual silver-medal this spring.

Riding the Pine

|

After the first three rounds of the PGA Championship, the tournament was McIlroy’s to lose. On Sunday, he almost did just that. Coming off back-to-back wins at the British Open and Bridgestone Invitational, McIlroy held a one-stroke lead entering the final round over Bernd Wiesberger, a relative newcomer regarded by few as a legitimate Sunday threat.

Students prepare for Fantasy Football

|

While Dartmouth has no official fantasy football league, smaller groups of students organize through fraternity houses, student organizations and friend groups to create their own competitions. At Kappa Kappa Kappa Fraternity, for example, members of the house gather during the NFL preseason for a brothers-only draft and fantasy tournament, Joon Baak ’15, member of Tri-Kap, said. Brothers also email invites to house alumni, he said.

New NCAA policies will impact Dartmouth student athletes

|

As incoming student-athletes walk across campus to their initial compliance meetings at the College, they may need to set aside more time to acquaint themselves with NCAA regulations than their predecessors did in previous years. With new NCAA policies coming into effect in August — including policies on recruiting, meals, coaching certifications and penalties for street drugs — and turnover in some Big Green coaching staffs, first-year student-athletes will have to think through more than just finding their classrooms and learning “Dartspeak.”
