Soccer beats rival Penn to stay undefeated in Ancient Eight

|

The No. 16 Dartmouth men's soccer team claimed the first-place rank in the Ivy League this Sunday, defeating last year's co-Ivy League champion, the University of Pennsylvania, 3-1 in Philadelphia, Pa. Snowy and rainy conditions postponed the game by a day, but Dartmouth (8-2-1, 3-0-0 Ivy) was not deterred, as three different goal scorers helped to secure the victory for the Big Green. Winger Austin Bowers '11 found the net early in the first half to give the Big Green a short-lived early lead, until Penn (4-6-3, 0-2-1 Ivy) responded just 10 minutes later.

Volleyball drops weekend doubleheader to Penn, Princeton

|

CHRISTOPHER RHOADES / The Dartmouth In its first Ivy League doubleheader at home this season, the Dartmouth women's volleyball team fell to both the powerhouse University of Pennsylvania and to Princeton in four sets, dropping Dartmouth to a third-place tie with Harvard and Cornell in the Ivy League. After winning the first three league matchups of the season, the Big Green (7-9, 3-3 Ivy) has now lost its last three. "As a team, I think we lost sight of our goals for the match and underestimated our opponent," co-captain Morgan Covington '10 said. Penn (14-4, 5-0 Ivy) continued to dominate Ivy foes, remaining undefeated after last weekend's doubleheader.

Toe to Toe: Best fall sport (Dolan)

In my mind, we really shouldn't even be having this debate. If we are considering all Dartmouth fall sports, both club and varsity, it's pretty obvious that the Dartmouth men's rugby team is by far the most dominant.

ONE-ON-ONE: Cobb and Alderman

|

I sat down with two Big Green field hockey players, Katherine Cobb '12 and Sarah Alderman '12, and discussed what would happen if I were on the team. First off, how annoying is it that you can't hit the ball with the other side of the stick? KC: Well, we've always been trained to play like that, so it's something that we're used to.
