Baseball takes two out of three against Hofstra

Two come-from-behind wins marked the Dartmouth baseball team's first games of the 2004 spring season this weekend. After a busy winter training in Leverone Field House, the team hoped to prove themselves at University Field in three games against the Hofstra Pride.

Steroids run rampant throughout professional baseball

|

This past week, federal prosecutors announced that they had found evidence that six professional athletes -- including baseball stars Barry Bonds, Jason Giambi and Gary Sheffield -- had received human growth hormone (hGH) and the designer steroid tetrahydrogestrinone (THG) from BALCO Labs. While this new information has certainly raised some questions about the integrity of Major League Baseball, was it really unexpected?

Big Green cyclists start season strong at Rutgers

|

The Dartmouth cyclists picked up where they left off last year by winning the women's elite A race and placing three riders in the top 25 in the men's elite at the Rutgers invitational, their first race of the season. Staving off winds and driving rain, women's captain Amy Wallace '04 captured the top spot for the women, just edging out teammate Kristina Eaton '04, who placed fourth. "We each did our own race, but I happened to be riding Kristina's wheel coming into the last few hundred yards, so she inadvertently gave me a lead out for the sprint.

Lady icers face Raiders, Big Red

|

After a pair of crucial victories at home against archrivals Harvard and Brown last weekend, the third-ranked Dartmouth Big Green will travel on the road to finish their regular season schedule in the state of New York. The Big Green (20-5-2, 12-3-1 ECAC) broke out of its worst slump this season to clinch the Ivy title.

Women's hoops shoots for Ivy title at Penn, Princeton

|

Since 1979, every four-year women's basketball player at Dartmouth has won an Ivy League title. Impressive as the statistic is, the stakes are higher than ever, with senior co-captains Jamie Librizzi and Sam Burnham looking for their share of history in the next six days. This weekend the Dartmouth women travel to the Palestra, Philadelphia's college basketball mecca, to take on first-place Pennsylvania.

Sailors' repeat trip to Charleston shows winter rust

|

Although recently it seems as though the Dartmouth Sailing Team could hold a regatta on certain patches of the Green, the co-ed sailors opted to return to the southern comfort of Charleston, S.C., for just their second taste of competition since the fall. The Bob Bavier Team Race Invite, hosted by the College of Charleston, tested the Big Green against seven of the best programs in the country in the squad's first team race event of the season.

Women's hoops looks for revenge

|

The Dartmouth women will be in an unfamiliar situation this weekend: they'll be seeking revenge. Having all but cruised through the Ivy League season so far, Dartmouth looks to avenge its only road loss of the conference, which came two weeks ago at the hands of Brown. Dartmouth has five games left in the season and must win them all in order to keep pace with first-place Pennsylvania, who has one loss to Dartmouth's two.

Clubbers fall to BC and Vermont

|

Proving that last week's victory was a mere aberration, this past weekend saw the Dartmouth club hockey team revert back to its familiar losing ways, dropping games to both Babson College and the University of Vermont. The clubbers visited Babson Friday night where they were welcomed by a hostile, sold-out arena.
