Resilient Big Green wins second round of ECAC series against Harvard

|

Showcasing impressive resiliency and offensive prowess, the men's hockey team skated to a 4-1 win over Harvard University on Saturday evening, leveling its ECAC first round series at one game apiece. Bouncing back from a first game loss to the Crimson (10-8-3, 6-14-2 ECAC), the Big Green (14-12-5, 9-9-4 ECAC) prolonged the season for at least one more game, with Sunday evening's matchup determining whether Dartmouth will advance to the ECAC quarterfinals. In a must-win contest, the Big Green scored first, last and in between on the way to a vitally important victory.

For the Love of the Game

How many times have you heard an announcer say something like this: "He may be small, but he plays with a lot of heart" or "People told him he was too small to play in the big leagues, but he is out here proving them wrong." If you follow professional sports, my guess is that you have heard the previous statements a fair amount.

Recruitment Deregulation

|

Mulin Xiong / The Dartmouth Staff The NCAA Board of Directors announced in January that it would eliminate many of the restrictions schools face when contacting recruits, loosening up a complex and outdated rulebook whose policies were becoming increasingly difficult to enforce. Although the specific impact of these changes on the Ivy League, and Dartmouth, may not be as dramatic as on larger conferences, they will force administrators and coaches to reassess how they recruit high school athletes. Five significant recruiting changes eliminate almost all restrictions on how colleges can communicate with prospects.
