The Dartmouth men's and women's tennis teams competed in two separate tournaments over the weekend, honing their skills in preparation for dual matches later in the season. The men's tennis team hosted Division III schools Williams College and Middlebury College in the Dartmouth Shootout, giving the Big Green a chance to test itself against two competitive opponents. Dartmouth rose to its Division I reputation, however, finishing the weekend a combined 13-4 in singles and 5-3 in doubles play.

Cross country displays depth at weekend meet

By Matt Stanton | October 9, 2011

After running to disappointing results at the Paul Short Invitational on Oct. 3, the Dartmouth men's and women's cross country teams made great strides in Saturday's New England Championships at Boston's Franklin Park. The men's top seven runners and the women's top five runners used the weekend to rest for the NCAA Pre-Championship meet next Sunday in Terre Haute, Ind., allowing other runners to assert themselves and battle for precious spots in later races this fall. The men's team failed to defend its victory in last year's meet, but still ran to a respectable second-place finish in the 43-team field, finishing with 192 points.

By Claire Monagan | October 9, 2011

Although the women's volleyball team fell to Yale University on Friday night, Dartmouth (10-6, 2-3 Ivy) redeemed its loss with a win against Brown University the following day. The Big Green could not overcome the balanced and precise offensive attack of the Bulldogs (10-4, 4-0 Ivy). Yale's hitting average of .326 nearly tripled Dartmouth's at .116, and Yale also trumped Dartmouth in aces, 8-2. After falling behind early in the first set, Dartmouth came back to take a 16-4 lead.
