Women's volleyball takes second at Dartmouth Invitational

By Ben Reed | October 2, 2006

Jennie Post / The Dartmouth Staff For the Dartmouth women's volleyball team, two points turned out to be the difference between a heartening victory in a home tournament, complete with a win over an Ivy League rival, and a bittersweet second-place finish. Although the Big Green managed to score two convincing victories against the New Jersey Institute of Technology and Robert Morris University in Saturday's competition, an emotional Friday night loss to Harvard that ended in a 15-13 fifth game cost the Big Green first place in the Dartmouth Invitational and soured an otherwise encouraging weekend. Before a revved up crowd at Leede Arena in that match, the Big Green (6-6, 0-2 Ivy) dominated the first two games (30-21, 30-22), playing some of its best volleyball of the season.

Dartmouth collected its first Ivy League victory by defeating Ivy rival Penn.

Field Hockey beats Penn at home

EMI ITO / The Dartmouth Staff Co-captain Whitney Waugh '08 and Stef Miller '09 scored nearly 30 seconds apart in the first half and the Big Green defense held off two corners in the waning moments of the second half to lead the Dartmouth field hockey team over the University of Pennsylvania, 2-1, Saturday afternoon at Scully-Fahey Field in Hanover. The win over the Quakers (3-7, 1-2 Ivy) gave the Big Green (2-6, 1-2 Ivy) its first victory in the Ivy League this year.

Women's soccer dominated virtually every statistical category other than score against Syracuse, but the team struggled to capitalize on scoring chances.

Women's soccer stumbles to scoreless tie with Syracuse

By Jennifer Yu | September 28, 2006

Kawakahi Amina / The Dartmouth Staff Dartmouth women's soccer settled for a 0-0 tie with the Syracuse Orange on Tuesday afternoon in Syracuse after a pair of overtime periods, despite a 22-shot effort from the Big Green offense. "Obviously we would have liked a win and we certainly had the opportunity to score, but that's soccer -- sometimes you outshoot a team but still come out with a tie or a loss," Becca Poskin '09 said. It is the first tie in the Dartmouth-Syracuse series history.

The Lady Green bounced back from a heartbreaking loss to Harvard on Friday to down Maine the following day.

Volleyball defeats University of Maine in straight games

By Kyle Jazwa | September 25, 2006

Jennie Post / The Dartmouth Staff In a show of resilience, the Dartmouth women's volleyball team (4-4, 0-1) downed the University of Maine (2-9) in three tough games on Saturday. On the heels of a four-game Friday night loss to Harvard, Dartmouth jumped out to an impressive start against the Black Bears and held on for the victory, sweeping Maine, 30-18, 30-25, 30-27. After a decidedly dominant performance by the Big Green in the first game, Maine bounced back in the second game to take an early lead that held for most of the game.

Kicking off the year: The D's mini-guide to Big Green athletics

By Evan J. Meyerson | September 25, 2006

Well hello, '10s! So you've survived three days of college classes, made it home unscathed after your first dance parties (at least those of you who did not get picked up after trying to convince Safety and Security that you've matriculated and it's now all right to urinate on the Blunt Alumni Center), and come out the other side of an absurdly long (and forced) freshman orientation.
