It's Always Snowy in Hanover
Every time I go and watch the Dartmouth men's hockey team play, I'm hit with mixed emotions. On one hand, I get a sense of genuine excitement.

Maggie Rowland / The Dartmouth Staff Skilled goaltending by Lindsay Holdcroft '14 and a hat trick from Camille Dumais '13 lifted the Dartmouth women's hockey team to two important victories over Ivy League rivals Yale University and Brown University this past weekend.
Patton Lowenstein / The Dartmouth Staff The 18th-ranked Dartmouth men's ice hockey team played host to Cornell University and Colgate University this weekend at Thompson Arena, tying the Big Red (9-9-3, 7-5-2 ECAC), 2-2, on Friday night and besting the Raiders (3-21-2, 0-12-2 ECAC), 7-3, on Saturday. The Big Green (12-6-3, 8-4-2 ECAC) generated several offensive opportunities against the Big Red in the first period, but Dartmouth could not find an answer to Cornell freshman goalie Andy Iles. Although neither team was able to send the puck to the back of the net in the first period, the Big Green clearly held the momentum in what was a back-and-forth contest. Dartmouth got on the board first when Rob Smith '10 picked up a loose puck at center ice and skated in on Iles.

Despite strong play from several less experienced players including Faziah Steen '13, who scored a career high in points on Saturday, and Janelle Ross '14, who recorded her first double-double on Friday the Dartmouth women's basketball team could not match Cornell University and Columbia University, and lost to both over the weekend. The team began the first of six weekends against back-to-back Ivy League opponents, traveling to Cornell (5-13, 2-2 Ivy) on Friday and to Columbia (3-15, 2-2 Ivy) on Saturday.

Doug Gonzalez / The Dartmouth Senior Staff Hoping to continue their early season success, the Dartmouth men's and women's track and field teams will compete in the Terrier Classic this weekend at Boston University. Racers will compete over the span of two days, with the women's events taking place on Friday and the men's events on Saturday. Dartmouth will race against approximately 50 other collegiate teams, including Yale University, Boston College, the University of Connecticut and Providence College. The event will serve as an unusual test for the Big Green, who will compete against several top programs and face different track conditions at Boston University's facilities. The Boston University track is "banked," or angled in much the same way that a stock car track would be, which, though unusual in collegiate track, is a condition that most runners enjoy. Women's tri-captain Alex Tanner '11 said the track is "one of the best tracks in the country," adding that "thousands" of runners have registered for the event.
