Men's golf loses steam on unfamiliar course, finishes ninth

By Priya Krishna | October 6, 2009

The Dartmouth men's golf team was unable to build its momentum following its win last weekend. The Big Green finished ninth at the MacDonald Cup held at Yale this weekend. Yale took first place, shooting a two-over-par 842, and Iowa State University took second, with a five-over-par 845. Dartmouth scored an 871, shooting 31 over par. Last year's Ivy League Player of the Year Pete Williamson '12 finished in fifth place individually with a score of 210, par for the course. "Williamson is our number-one player," Davis Mullany '11 said.

Volleyball sweeps Harvard again

By Tianchi Xu | October 4, 2009

Geoff Holman / The Dartmouth Staff The Dartmouth women's volleyball team rolled past Harvard in its Ivy home opener last Friday at Leede Arena to remain undefeated in league matchups. Beating the Crimson (4-9, 0-2 Ivy) in straight sets for the second time in two weeks, the Big Green (6-6, 2-0 Ivy) made its case to be a top league contender, backed by a healthy rotation and a strong offense. "In the scheme of things, these two games are probably the most important matches we will play this season," co-captain Megan MacGregor '10 said.

Football hopes for first win against battered Penn squad

By Rich Mezzasalma | October 1, 2009

After opening the season with two losses, the Dartmouth football team will seek its first win of the season as the team opens its Ivy League schedule this weekend against the University of Pennsylvania. The Big Green will need to have a strong showing in order to defeat Penn, which was picked to finish second in the Ivy League preseason media poll. Dartmouth (0-2, 0-0 Ivy) has already shown vast improvement from last year's winless season, and will look to build on its solid outing against the University of New Hampshire. Last week, the Big Green was able to keep pace with the Wildcats for the first half before falling 44-14.

Winingham and Scott to compete at All-American tourney

By Caroline Buck | September 30, 2009

RICKY MELGARES / The Dartmouth Staff By Caroline Buck Seated side-by-side, Mary Beth Winingham '10 and Molly Scott '11 might seem more like sisters or close friends at first glance than a tennis doubles powerhouse. These two Dartmouth standouts, however, have achieved a rare feat both have qualified to play at the Rivieria/ITA Women's All-American Championships in California in October. Winingham and Scott seem to have the best of both worlds as both individual players and as doubles competitive drive paired with a strong friendship. "Our styles complement each other well," Scott said. "The way we interact is that we have fun on the court you'll see us laughing between points," Winingham said.

By Stefanie Lazow | September 30, 2009

"When you are a little kid, you always want to play in the majors," Santomauro, who played right field for the Big Green, said.

By Dan Lentz | September 29, 2009

With three national titles, five Ivy League titles and two EAWRC coach of the year awards already under his belt, Cornell crew coach Dan Roock decided it was time to take a "few years" off from coaching full time. After only a one-year hiatus, however, Roock has returned to coaching Ivy League crew, and will now lead the Dartmouth lightweight squad. "I was going to take a couple years off, but decided to jump at the job, because Dartmouth is such a good place to coach rowing," Roock said. Roock, who himself has the same number of national titles as Dartmouth does Ivy League titles in lightweight crew, graduated from Princeton in 1981 where, as a senior, his teammates awarded him the Lyman W.
