The Glove

By David Glovsky | February 6, 2008

This Winter Carnival, I will not participate in any ski races (cross country or alpine), nor will be I partake in the human dogsled.

The Big Green bounced back from its Ivy League struggles with a victory over the University of Maine last Saturday.

Women's hockey eyes second place after weekend win, tie

By Cameron Nutt | February 4, 2008

ADRIAN MUNTEANU / The Dartmouth The Big Green women's hockey team posted a solid showing during their second-to-last home stand of the season, tying Yale 3-3 on Friday and defeating Brown 4-2 on Saturday. Yale (9-9-5, 6-7-3 ECAC) arrived in Hanover hoping to defend second place in the Ivy League, which it had wrested from the Big Green (12-7-4, 9-5-2 ECAC) last week following Dartmouth's loss to Harvard (19-1-0, 16-0-0 ECAC). When the two teams played earlier in the season, Dartmouth emerged with a 4-1 victory. The Bulldogs got the first major opportunity early in the first period with a 5-on-3 power play advantage but failed to get any of six shots past the Dartmouth defense and goalkeeper Carli Clemis '09.

The Big Green put itself in a three-way tie for first place in the Ivy League with two wins, over Princeton and Penn, last weekend.

Women's basketball rallies to win two Ivy League games

By Kevin Liao | February 4, 2008

SEBASTIAN RAMIREZ-BRUNNER / The Dartmouth Coming from behind both times, Dartmouth women's basketball put together consecutive victories this past weekend with a 68-55 win against Princeton and a 63-58 win against Penn. With the weekend sweep, the Big Green (6-12, 3-1 Ivy) leads the Ancient Eight along with Cornell (11-6, 3-1 Ivy), Harvard (10-8, 3-1 Ivy) and Yale (5-12, 3-1 Ivy). In all three of its Ancient Eight wins this season, Dartmouth had to battle back from second-half deficits and build key scoring runs to win. Head coach Chris Wielgus pointed out that the team does a superb job of stifling opposing teams to throw up long jumpers when the shot clock is winding down. "We pride ourselves in our defense," Wielgus said.

Toe to Toe: Super Bowl Edition (Schmidley)

By Will Schmidley | February 1, 2008

In my column two weeks ago, I espoused the Pats as the "correct" team for the neutral fan to cheer on to victory. In the weeks since, I vacillated back and forth between staunch belief in my pro-Pats position and fundamentally questioning its validity.

Toe to Toe: Super Bowl Edition (Hodes)

By Alex Hodes | February 1, 2008

The Giants will walk into University of Phoenix Stadium on Sunday as heavy underdogs, but don't think they can't pull off an upset. In fact, don't be surprised if they do. The Giants took the Patriots to the brink of defeat when the two teams met on December 29th.

Over The Hill

By Evan J. Meyerson | January 31, 2008

Super Bowl weekend -- the greatest spectacle in sports -- is finally upon us. The Super Bowl is an event that encapsulates the American dream -- passion, hope, hard work, cheerleaders, pigs in a blanket, etc. In fact, perhaps the only competitive contest that could eclipse the Bowl would be a Royal Rumble-style cage match between all the presidential candidates juiced up on HGH.

The Big Green's senior swimmers competed in their last intercollegiate competitions at Dartmouth last Sunday.

The Glove

By David Glovsky | January 30, 2008

Phil Woram / The Dartmouth Staff Dartmouth men's basketball is now 7-8 after a three-game winning streak (I still refuse to count beating Daniel Webster College, despite what the Dartmouth College Athletic Department tries to say). For a program that has a great deal of history, with four consecutive NCAA appearances from 1941-4 followed by three more appearances from 1956-9, the Big Green has fallen on hard times in the past half-century. Yet it appears there is hope.

Harvard frustrated Dartmouth's scorers with a 4-0 win, outshooting the Big Green 43-18 and playing most of the game on Dartmouth's defensive end.

Women's hockey shut out by No. 1 Harvard in Cambridge

By Cameron Nutt | January 29, 2008

Jessica Griffen / The Dartmouth Staff Dartmouth women's hockey suffered a disappointing 0-4 loss to nationally top-ranked Harvard on Sunday. It was the second shutout loss of the year for Dartmouth (11-7-3, 8-5-1 ECAC) and it came at the hands of one of Harvard's strongest performances of the season.
