By Arik Clausner | November 3, 2008

The Dartmouth women's hockey team vanquished two ECAC Hockey foes this weekend, out-muscling Princeton, 3-2, in New Jersey before smashing Quinnipiac University, 3-0, in Connecticuit. Friday night was the season opener for the Big Green (2-0-0, 2-0-0 ECAC Hockey), and Sarah Parsons '10 potted what turned out to be the game-winning goal late in the second period as the Big Green jumped out to a 3-0 lead and held on as the Tigers (1-3-0, 0-2-0 ECAC Hockey) clawed back into the game. Early on in the game, the Big Green dominated play, as Dartmouth out-shot the Tigers, 18-7, in the first period.

Milan Williams '09 has led the Big Green in rushing yards, but he will need a big game to beat Harvard on Saturday.

Field Hockey earns third win in overtime at Columbia

By Sarah Rohrbach | October 28, 2008

Chris Parker / The Dartmouth Staff Dartmouth's women's field hockey team was able to pull out its third Ivy League win of the season on Saturday as it outlasted Columbia University in New York, winning 3-2 in overtime. While the Big Green never trailed in the game, it was far from one-sided as the Lions (10-4, 1-4 Ivy) stayed strong throughout regulation and the 12 minutes of overtime before Meghan Everett '12 sealed the Dartmouth victory. The goal came when captain Kristen McCormick '09 guided a pass across the field and through the Columbia defense to Everett, who did not think twice, putting away the goal in the lower corner and making the Lions pay for their mishap.

The Dartmouth men's soccer team bounced back in a big way Saturday afternoon as the Big Green took a commanding 3-1 victory from Columbia University in New York City. Columbia scored in the final minutes of play to get on the board, but the late effort was not enough after a two-goal day by forward Lucky Mkosana '12.

By Tianchi Xu | October 27, 2008

Late drive opportunity falls short as football falls to Lions

By Paul Glenn | October 27, 2008

Jared Bookman / The Dartmouth Staff Alex Jenny '10 lined up at Columbia University on Saturday in a critical situation -- down a touchdown with less than two minutes on the clock, ready to lead a drive into the wind and pouring rain to tie the game. But in a season where little has gone right for the Big Green, the misfortune continued, as Andy Shalbrack picked off Jenny's pass over the middle, securing a 21-13 victory for the Lions. It was head coach Buddy Teevens' first-ever loss against Columbia (1-5, 1-2 Ivy), as a player or a coach. With the win, the Lions snapped their 13-game losing streak and extended Dartmouth's (0-6, 0-3 Ivy) drought to eight games without a victory. The Big Green is last in the league, while Columbia is now in seventh place. Brown University and the University of Pennsylvania are tied for first heading into next weekend's head-to-head contest in Philadelphia, Pa. Both teams were forced to battle a driving rain and swirling wind that gusted up to and above 40 miles per hour, breaking many of the umbrellas in the sparse crowd, officially listed at 2,161. Both teams used two quarterbacks in the game, but it was Columbia that found the mid-game swap to be more effective. M.A.
