The women’s ice hockey team has kept fans and foes on their toes so far this season with several close losses. Over the break, the team (3-12-0, 2-7-0 ECAC) went 1-5-0, suffering four one-goal losses. The team’s lone win came on Dec. 31 against the Providence College Friars in Hanover. The team faced stiff competition over the interim, facing off against then No. 5 Harvard University and No. 8 Boston University.

One-on-One with John Golden '15

|

This week, I sat down with forward John Golden ’15 of the men’s basketball team — which went 5-4 over the break — to talk about the team’s success during the interim and what it’s like to be an athlete at the College. The team’s break included trips to Indiana and Illinois, as well as a four game win streak that helped keep them above .500 and propel them to the fourth-best record in the Ivy League entering play in the Ancient Eight.

Rec League Legends

Loyal readers, welcome back to the greatest show on earth. It’s a new term and for many of you, that probably means a new, fresh start. You probably vowed to really change things around this term, probably because mom and dad saw your grades and were a little disappointed because they “pay enough for a nice house or an entire city block in Detroit” for you to go here. We get it.

Football team to face Brown in R.I.

|

The football team seeks to keep its slim Ivy League title hopes alive with an away victory over Brown University on Saturday in Providence, R.I. A win over Brown (5-3, 2-3 Ivy) this weekend and losses by Harvard University and Princeton University against Yale University would set up a showdown in two weeks where Dartmouth (4-4, 3-2 Ivy) could earn a share of the title against the Tigers.

Pulse of the Sports World

As the college basketball season gets underway, there is little doubt that fans across the Ivy League are contemplating what Harvard University’s stunning NCAA tournament win last year might mean for the program. In the first round, the 14th-seeded Crimson upset third-seeded University of New Mexico, shocking the nation and busting many brackets. Harvard’s win was an indicator to many that an Ivy League team can indeed compete at the highest level of Division I basketball.
