Football handles Yale in easy victory

October 7, 2012

Down 14-13 at halftime, the Dartmouth football team methodically pulled away from Yale University to win 34-14 on Saturday in New Haven, Conn., as the Big Green's stringent defense and strong play from unheralded backups gave Dartmouth its first 3-1 start since 1997 and its first win over Yale since 2002. After the Bulldogs (1-3, 0-2 Ivy) seized a 14-10 lead on a fake field goal with 4:12 to play in the first half, the Big Green (1-1 Ivy) defense buckled down and stopped four of Yale's next six fourth-down attempts. "We knew they were an aggressive team, and we knew they were going to have some tricks in the bag," co-captain and linebacker Bronson Green '14 said.

By Michael Shagrin | October 4, 2012

Much to my chagrin, the prospects of an NHL season are diminishing by the day. As has become all too ordinary over the last decade, phenomenally wealthy owners are attempting to roll back the players' percentage share of revenue by double digits.

Dominick Pierre '14 has gained 350 yards on 69 carries in three games in 2012 and has done an able job filling in for the departed Nick Schwieger '12.
