By Evan J. Meyerson | November 6, 2006

Six days after toppling Harvard and Vermont in convincing fashion to open its 2006-07 campaign, the Dartmouth men's hockey team showed that it is still a good distance from developing into the dominant force it hopes to become. Following a heartbreaking 2-1 home overtime loss to St.

Clark '92 uses soccer experience to promote HIV awareness

By Ben Reed | November 6, 2006

After completing a successful soccer career at Dartmouth, Tommy Clark '92 pursued his dream of playing professional soccer in a country whose own inhabitants were often searching for a way out. In Bulawayo, the second largest city in landlocked, sub-Saharan Zimbabwe, where Clark had lived for a few years as a teenager, the 22-year old graduate suited up for the Bulawaya Highlanders, a sobering experience that might not have advanced his soccer career, but impacted his life in ways that he never could have foreseen. As a soccer pro and volunteer English teacher at the English Youth Contact Center, Clark watched several of his teammates, fellow teachers at the school and other friends and acquaintances fall victim to HIV/AIDS, which has ravaged the country.

Swim teams ready to compete after tumultuous off-season

By Jennifer Yu | November 3, 2006

The Dartmouth men's and women's swimming and diving teams, newly united under head coach Jim Wilson, will open the 2006-07 campaign this weekend with meets against Boston College, Columbia and Maine. The Dartmouth women's team (DWSD), which finished seventh in the Ivy League last season, enters the season after enduring a few tumultuous months of uncertainly after last year's coach, Joann Brislin, resigned from her position to become the Big Green's assistant director for physical education. The team took another hit when, barely two months after the College announced the hiring of Jerry Foley, the former Bucknell University head coach cited family reasons as his reason for retracting his commitment to Dartmouth. Foley's decision came less than a month before the swimming season began and the College decided to name Wilson as the head coach for both the men's and women's programs. "I think we have already overcome our biggest challenge after Jerry Foley resigned, which was the feeling of limbo of what is going to happen to DWSD," Elizabeth Mancuso '08 said.

By Alysia Harris | November 1, 2006

Emma Haberman / The Dartmouth Senior Staff On Saturday evening the women's rugby club defeated the Northeastern Mad Dogs 12-10 in a do or die match, putting the team back on track and into the Northeastern Rugby Union quarterfinals following last weekend's trying loss to the University of Massachusetts at home. With visions of advancing to NCAA Nationals in their eyes, the women headed to Northeastern for an unusual evening kickoff in sub-par conditions. The first 15 minutes of the match were played inside of Northeastern's 22-meter line, with fierce rucking and aggressive offense from the Dartmouth side.

One on One

By John Mitchell | October 30, 2006

It was not a good week for me. I soiled quite dramatically in both academic and athletic venues, leaving me with my journalism career to fall back on, which is never good for the old self-esteem.
