Emily Unger Coming off a three-game slide, the Dartmouth women's volleyball team (13-7, 6-4 Ivy) notched their thirteenth win of the season Friday against Brown, but split the weekend road trip, dropping a five-game nail-biter to Yale on Saturday. "Both matches this weekend were vital in order for us to reach our ultimate goal, to win the Ivy League championship," libero Amanda Marston '10 said. Dartmouth has four games versus conference opponents remaining. Against Brown (4-14, 2-6 Ivy), Dartmouth failed to take advantage of opportunities early on.
