Varsity House nears completion

By Kevin Pellecchia | January 24, 2007

Andrew Palmer / The Dartmouth At the tail end of Dartmouth's recent construction boom, the three-story, 41,300 square-foot Floren Varsity House has quietly risen out of the ground over the past year. Though a much smaller-scale project than other recently constructed buildings like the McLaughlin Cluster and Kemeny Hall, Floren is an ambitious replacement to the eighty year-old, 17,200-square-foot Davis Varsity House.

The Glove

By David Glovsky | January 23, 2007

"Playoffs??? Don't talk about playoffs. You kidding me? Playoffs? I just hope we can win a game." This unfortunate rant by Indianapolis Colts coach Jim Mora in 2001 was not the best thing that ever happened to his career, but one of the most memorable press conferences in recent memory.

Youngsters get involved, hockey sweeps weekend series

By Jordan Rose | January 22, 2007

In a week-long tune-up to its final stretch of pivotal conference games, the Dartmouth men's ice hockey team will enter next weekend riding a three-game win streak after beating Canisius by a score of 6-3 on Friday and Sacred Heart in a closely contested 4-3 victory on Saturday at Thompson Arena. Despite playing a rare mid-week game last Tuesday against Holy Cross, the Big Green (9-8-2, 5-5-2 ECACHL) seldom showed signs of fatigue as the team controlled the tempo throughout the majority of each non-conference game. This resolve and focus could be critical in the coming weeks for a Big Green squad that will almost certainly need to win the ECACHL tournament in order to secure a NCAA postseason tournament bid. Dartmouth entered the weekend second in the conference standings, but on Sunday the Big Green had moved down to sixth place, as other teams had played conference games during the weekend. Following the contest against Sacred Heart, head coach Bob Gaudet said that the team will need to focus on executing basic plays if the Big Green want to succeed in the coming week. "We just need to tighten up some of the systems we play--momentum on the power play, killing penalties and just having a good solid team concept both offensively and defensively," Gaudet said. "The stretch drive is coming up," he added.
