Charity sports tournaments dominate weekend athletic action

By Dana Malajian | May 7, 2008

As varsity sports near the end of the spring seasons, Dartmouth students have begun to transfer their pent-up athletic energy into a variety of recreational sports charity tournaments. On Sunday, some students took part in the PanHellenic Council's annual flag football tournament at Hanover High School, while others stepped up to the plate in a charity whiffleball tournament hosted by Alpha Delta fraternity. For those who chose to test their skills with flag football, the ultimate prize was the Golden Football, which was presented to the winners of the men's and women's division finals. On the women's side, Kappa Delta Epsilon sorority claimed the Golden Football, while an at-large men's team registered as LAXXXXX won the men's tournament. This weekend's tournament marks the fourth time the event has been held, according to PanHell President Jessica Lane '09.

By Stephen Preefer | May 5, 2008

BEN GETTINGER / The Dartmouth After losing an early 3-0 lead, five Big Green players connected for six fourth-quarter goals as Dartmouth men's lacrosse defeated Harvard, 12-6, Saturday in Cambridge, Mass., in the Big Green's season finale. Despite losing the lead to Harvard (6-8, 1-5 Ivy) for a short span in the second and third periods, the Big Green (7-7, 3-3 Ivy) played a second straight week of impressive team lacrosse. "I think that throughout the game we played very well," captain Doug Rendall '09 said.
