The equestrian team concluded its most successful season by taking 10th place out of 16 schools at the IHSA Nationals competition last week in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. This season, the Big Green won both its regional and Zone competitions to qualify for the national horse show for the first time in program history.

Inside the Locker Room

By Sarah Caughey | May 5, 2014

Although most people picture Dartmouth athletes constantly decked out in uniform, game ready and prepped to crush a fellow Ivy in league play, the reality of life as an athlete is honestly more determined by “off” seasons than “on” seasons. Competition generally only spans one term, but off-season training is all-encompassing and year-round.

Baseball team wins one-game playoff for Rolfe Division crown

By Gayne Kalustian | May 4, 2014

In the rain and against the odds, the Dartmouth baseball team brought home its seventh straight Red Rolfe Division title by crushing the Yale University Bulldogs 11-4 in a one-game playoff Sunday afternoon at Biondi Park. The team, rising from the hole it dug itself by opening the season with a 5-9 Ivy League record, ended on an eight-game winning streak, which it will take to Columbia University (25-17, 15-5 Ivy) next weekend for the Ivy League Championship Series.

Rec League Legends

This week the Legends were ready to take on the men’s lacrosse team, a competition that I had been trash talking the entire year. Lacrosse is the only sport I ever played competitively, and I looked forward to matching up against the Big Green’s best. I was also looking forward to seeing Austin get out on the lacrosse field and seeing what he would do with a six foot pole in his hands.

One-on-One

I sat down with Kelsey Miller ’16, the starting third baseman for the softball team, to chat before the team’s big weekend. Miller helped keep the team’s hopes alive with a walk-off home run against Harvard University on April 27 in game two of the home doubleheader. In this weekend’s Ivy League Championship Series she scored two runs in the Big Green’s 2-1 series win over the University of Pennsylvania.

Sailing claims spot at ICSA nationals

By Alex Carr | May 1, 2014

The beginning of May presents two milestones for the Dartmouth sailing team: one month until the ICSA championship and the thawing of Lake Mascoma. Over the next weeks, the team will have plenty of opportunities to fine-tune technique and break in a brand new fleet of boats as the women prepare to defend their national championship and the coed team looks to improve on last year’s third-place finish.

School had been out for 15 minutes and a group of girls had gathered on the football field. “All right, I think we can do a mile and a half today,” I said. “Let’s get started.”

By Josh Schiefelbein | April 30, 2014

When head coaching positions are endowed by wealthy donors, the Big Green receives additional support to pursue athletic success. On Monday, Dartmouth announced that four more teams — men’s hockey, women’s rowing, men’s heavyweight rowing and women’s alpine skiing — would receive similar funding, thanks to four alumni gifts totaling $7 million.

Inside the Locker Room

By Phoebe Hoffmann | April 28, 2014

I’m not sure how closely you follow NCAA politics, but in an attempt to better the well-being of student-athletes, the NCAA recently approved a few new rules. Football players are now required three hours of rest between preseason practices, but the most important and controversial rule is one that would provide Division I athletes with unlimited meals and snacks.
