Track teams tune up at Boston Univ.

By Allen Odeniyi | January 28, 2008

Dartmouth's men's and women's track teams competed with mixed results in the Terrier Classic at Boston University last weekend. This was an individual meet with no team scores assessed or assigned. The meet mainly served as an opportunity for the Big Green to face national-level competition, improve running times and develop experience on a larger scale. Overall, the men and women are improving their times, though fatigue may have affected performances in Terrier Classic. "We ran better in the Yale meet than we did yesterday, the athletes seemed tired from events done earlier in the meets," head coach Barry Harwick '77 said.

Kyle Betts / The Dartmouth Dartmouth's men's basketball team (8-8, 1-1 Ivy) has played with unparalleled confidence in its last three games, finishing its non-conference schedule Wednesday night with a win over an unmatched University of Maryland-Eastern Shore (2-17).

Basketball win deemed team's 'defining moment'

By Ryan Karr | January 17, 2008

Teresa Lattanzio / The Dartmouth Staff In the final moments of what was shaping up to be another tough loss for Dartmouth's men's basketball squad (7-8, 1-1 Ivy), the Big Green performed a minor miracle, taking down the University of New Hampshire (4-12) 65-60 in overtime on Tuesday night. Down double-digits with just a few seconds left in play against the confident Wildcats, the Big Green assumed a new identity, furiously rallying to tie the game on a jump shot from Alex Barnett '09 with 1.3 seconds left in regulation play, before winning the game in overtime. The impressive upset victory follows on the heels of the team's big win against Harvard last week. After the game, the coaching staff made no attempt to hide its excitement. "[Head] coach [Terry] Dunn told the team that this was a defining moment for this team and for the basketball program," assistant coach Shay Berry said. The Dartmouth team began the contest with intensity, showing no signs of letting up after a strong performance in their previous game. An early three by DeVon Mosley '09 and an alley-oop slam dunk from Barnett on an assist from co-captain Johnathan Ball '08 helped the Big Green build a commanding 16-6 lead.
