ONE-ON-ONE: Bean and Brooks

|

Last week, I chatted with a couple of Dartmouth baseball pitchers who made the bold claim that the members of the pitching squad are the best athletes on the field.


After losing the first two games of a four-game series to Harvard, the Big Green baseball rallied on Sunday, winning the third game 9-0 and the fourth 9-7.

Women's rowing wins, men lose

|

The women (12-2, 3-2 Ivy), who raced in Hanover, had one of their best races of the season, as Cornell is traditionally a solid team. "Every boat got faster, and that was pretty exciting," captain Sarah Alexander '10 said.

Men's lax falls to Brown in OT

|

Nicholas Root / The Dartmouth Staff Nicholas Root / The Dartmouth Staff The Dartmouth men's lacrosse team suffered a heartbreaking loss at the hands of Brown University on Saturday, falling to the Bears in overtime, 10-9. If the Big Green (5-8, 2-4 Ivy) had won the game it would have made the Ivy League tournament as Harvard University lost to Yale University earlier in the day, giving Dartmouth a chance at a playoff berth. Head coach Andy Towers said the loss was disheartening because the team was improving. "It is disappointing for the season to end when we were peaking," he said.

Rollin' with Dolan

So I thought I had a pretty good idea for this column. It seems like every other night, I'm crushed by many of my friends who say they can't go out because they "have lift the next morning." I usually respond by making a raised-eyebrow face, which pretty clearly suggests, "Fine, but for the record, I think you're being a wussy." (Except usually that last word begins with a p, not a w.) In reality though, there's not much I can say to them.

Softball's season ends with four losses to Harvard

|

Ashley Mitchell / The Dartmouth Staff Ashley Mitchell / The Dartmouth Staff In a winner-take-all four-game series against Harvard University, the Dartmouth softball team fell behind early and had no answer to the Crimson's big bats, as the Big Green's run for a second-straight Ivy League North Division title was cut short. Harvard (25-20, 17-3 Ivy) swept Dartmouth (13-26, 11-9 Ivy) in the four-game series. "I think we just put way too much pressure on ourselves," co-captain Alyssa Parker '10 said. The Big Green opened its final series of the season trailing Harvard by two games and needing to take three of four games from the Crimson in order to claim a share of the division crown. The Dartmouth losses on Saturday gave Harvard a four-game lead with two games left to play, ending the Big Green's title chase. In the opener, the Crimson came out blazing, jumping to a 4-0 lead in the first inning highlighted by a three-run shot from sophomore Whitney Shaw. The situation would not improve for the Big Green for the rest of the day, as the Crimson starter Rachel Brown went to work and methodically broke down Dartmouth's lineup with almost unhittable pitches. "We were gearing up to face more speed against Rachel Brown," Parker said.

Baseball goes 3 -1 vs. Brown to claim a two game division lead

|

The Dartmouth baseball team seized control of the Ivy League's Rolfe Division by sweeping a pair of midweek games against Brown University in Providence, R.I., on Tuesday and Wednesday. After splitting two games with Brown (12-27, 9-7 Ivy) on Saturday, Sunday's doubleheader was rained out, forcing the two teams to make up the games this week. Dartmouth (21-13, 11-5 Ivy) will now take a two-game division lead into its final series of the regular season a four game home-and-home set with Harvard University that begins tomorrow in Cambridge, Mass. Should the Big Green advance, it will likely face Columbia University in the Ivy League Championship Series.

The Legends would like to say goodbye to spring and welcome back the snow. Fratzatoni Phil didn't see his shadow this year on Webster Ave., which means that spring was only going to last for two weeks.

Men's lacrosse falls to Bryant 7-5

Nicholas Root / The Dartmouth Staff Nicholas Root / The Dartmouth Staff Plagued with an inability to find the back of the net late in the game, the Dartmouth men's lacrosse team failed to capitalize on its open looks against Bryant University on Tuesday, losing 7-5. Head coach Andy Towers said that the team played well in most regards, with the notable exception of its shooting. "You have to take advantage of the opportunities you have," he said.
