Schechtman leads tennis to two wins

|

Trading in the fall foliage of Hanover, N.H. for the bright lights of New York City, Dartmouth men's tennis traveled to the National Tennis Center this weekend for the ECAC Tournament. Though the Big Green would ultimately leave Flushing Meadows with two wins in three matches, tournament play opened up with a little bit of heartbreak.

Dartmouth and Princeton get defensive in 0-0 draw

|

The Dartmouth men's soccer squad (2-1-4 overall, 0-0-1 Ivy) battled the Princeton Tigers (4-2-2 overall, 0-0-1 Ivy) to a scoreless draw, in a contact-filled, defense-dominated double overtime thriller at Lourie-Love Field in New Jersey Saturday. After a season-opening loss to Cal State-Northridge, the Big Green has now extended its undefeated streak to six games. Saturday's game was marked by a rash of fouls -- Dartmouth registered 21 to Princeton's 25 -- and physical play in the game's most pivotal moments, most notably a 70th-minute tangle-up involving Princeton junior midfielder Ben Young and Dartmouth defender Oliver Harker-Smith '05. As Young surged toward the Dartmouth penalty box on a through ball, he was tripped by Smith, which resulted in a Big Green yellow card. Controversy arose when the referee determined the spot of the foul to be outside of the box.

Great AL stadiums: Yankee Stadium's rich tradition and winning history make it the premier place to watch a game

|

My father always says, "I'm Catholic, my wife is Jewish and my kids are Yankees fans." Therefore, it's understandable that in my eyes Yankee Stadium is the holiest of places. Be in 1993 watching Melido Perez pitch miserably for us, or screaming endlessly in Game Two of the 1999 AL Championship Series (Bostonians, I'm sure, can recall that result), every time I venture into the Stadium is truly a spiritual experience.

UNH tops Big Green volleyball in first home contest

|

Despite a host of new faces on the court Wednesday night, the Dartmouth volleyball team reminded the home crowd of many of last season's losses, dropping two painfully close games in a 3-0 loss to in-state rival UNH at Leede Arena (30-21, 31-29, 30-28). With four freshmen in the starting lineup, the new Big Green (1-7) overcame a sluggish start to play a very competitive match but committed a number of costly errors and lost the battle at the net to the bigger Wildcats (4-7), mustering just a .098 hitting percentage as the ladies in green were outblocked 13-2. In the first game, UNH was able to stretch a 22-18 lead into a comfortable 30-21 win.
