Mygatt and Chenel excel in international ski race

|

Jennifer Mygatt '04 faced the steep course and cold Greenlandic coastal winds with the words of fellow-racer Fabian Mauz in her head: "If you can't find something to smile about you might as well shoot yourself." It made her laugh as she was forced to herringbone up another hill of the formidable terrain in conditions that, on that first day of the Arctic Circle Race Sunday, March 28, could be called challenging at best. "It didn't let up a lot," Mygatt said.

Big Green laxers enter heart of Ivy League schedule

|

In the summer of 2002, Elizabeth Right '04 made a bold prediction for herself and her Dartmouth lacrosse teammates -- that they would win a national championship. "In the next two years, it will be done," Right said. With the 2004 season in full swing, the Big Green women are out to fulfill Right's prophecy, but with the NCAA tournament more than a month away, there's another championship on their minds: Dartmouth's eighth Ivy League title in 10 years. In that regard, so far, so good. After a competitive spring break schedule that included trips to nationally-ranked Stanford and Maryland, the Big Green are 4-2 (2-0 Ivy) and in the heart of their Ivy League schedule.
