By Matthew Mackey | October 10, 2005

By David Schmidt | October 10, 2005

Heavy rain and mixed results were the running themes for the Dartmouth field hockey team this weekend. The Big Green first overwhelmed Yale to win 4-1 on a wet Saturday in New Haven, Conn., ending a two-game losing streak only to drop the next day's contest against Holy Cross 5-4.

Volleyball drops two matches to Penn and Princeton

By Nathan Niparko | October 10, 2005

The Big Green's women's volleyball team saw its nine-match winning streak and its Ivy League success come to a halt this weekend as it dropped matches at Princeton (10-3, Ivy 2-1) and Penn (6-7, Ivy 3-0). Dartmouth proved unable to return to the success of its early season, as it only claimed one game over the course of the weekend, as the Big Green dropped to 9-5 overall, with a 2-2 record in the Ivy League. Friday night's loss to Princeton (30-23, 30-20, 30-28) was the first blemish on the Big Green's Ivy League record. The Tigers held Dartmouth's leading hitters, Jess Thomas '09, Katie Hirsch '08 and Sarah Nadler '06 to a fraction of their season averages. The teams exchanged side-outs until 19-19, when Princeton pulled away with their aggressive serving, exploiting a weak serve-receive game by the Big Green. This momentum carried the Tigers through the second game as they coasted to a 30-20 victory, holding Dartmouth to a -.024 hitting percentage. The Big Green rallied in the third game, but fell short as the Tigers aced a serve to win their first Ivy League match, taking the third and final game 30-28. "Something was different," said Thomas, coming off her second Ivy League Rookie of the Week honors, "we didn't come out with intensity; a big part of our team is playing with spirit.

By Nedko Kyuchukov | October 3, 2005

The Big Green men's soccer team started its defense of last year's Ivy League title with a hard-fought and well-earned 1-0 overtime defeat of the Princeton Tigers at Chase Field. The Tigers (3-4-1, 0-1-0 Ivy), who finished second to Dartmouth in the 2004 Ivy League standings, never looked like they stood a chance and were lucky not to concede in the first half.
