By Dan Bornstein | April 24, 2014

By Brett Drucker | April 23, 2014

When Dartmouth’s Steve Mangan ’14 crossed the finish line in the mile race at the indoor Ivy League Heptagonal Championships in Hanover in March, he shattered the Ivy record by nearly three seconds. The previous record-holder — Courtney Jaworski of the University of Pennsylvania — had run his best in 2006 but will soon return to Hanover in a different context, as the head coach of Dartmouth’s women’s cross country team and an assistant coach on the track and field teams.

It's all about the green

By Josh Schiefelbein | April 20, 2014

Spending just over $23.4 million in fiscal year 2013, Dartmouth’s athletics department expenditures ranked the third-highest in the Ivy League, according to the Department of Education’s equity in athletics data analysis cutting tool. The University of Pennsylvania leads the League in spending, with fiscal year 2013 expenditures totaling over $39 million, and Yale University tops out above $36 million. Dartmouth’s budget more closely resembles the rest of the Ivies, which spent between $18 and $22 million overall.

By Hayden Aldredge | April 20, 2014

After making quick work in a 4-0 sweep at Yale University on Saturday, the men’s tennis team won in dramatic fashion for the second week in a row at the Thompson outdoor courts on Sunday. It took a third set tiebreaker victory from Chris Kipouras ’15 to secure the win for the Big Green (18-5, 5-1 Ivy) against Brown University on senior day. The final score line was 4-3. The two wins secured the team’s winningest Ivy record since the eight-team league was established in 1998 and the 18 wins ties an all-time high.

Pierce ’14 and David Sinclair ’14 — will be among the thousands of runners who will participate in this year’s edition, one year after the tragic bombings that led to three deaths and hundreds of injuries in 2013.
