After trial by fire, football looks to fire back at UNH

|

With new starters at several positions, including quarterback, running back and punter, the Big Green football team would have benefited from an opening game against a mediocre opponent, against whom Dartmouth could work out the kinks, while the new starters could settle into their roles en route to a Big Green victory. Instead, Dartmouth got a trial by fire against the Colgate Raiders, ranked 25th in Division I-AA and fresh off a 38-15 win over Division I-A Buffalo.

Top 10 athletic feats of 2002-2003

|

Football tight end Casey Cramer '04 named first team AFCA All-America and second team AP selection. Softball pitcher Christine Quattrocchi '03 closed her career as the school's all-time leader in wins, strikeouts, earned run average and complete games. Mustafa Abdur-Rahim '04 earned All-American status at the outdoor NCAA Championships and was the outstanding performer at the Heps. Bradley Wall '02 won the men's slalom title and was second in the giant slalom to earn All-America honors at the Dartmouth Skiway hosted NCAA skiing championships. Men's soccer captured a share of Ivy League title by winning seven out of its last eight games of the season. Women's soccer made the NCAA tournament for the fifth consecutive season, but lost in the first round to Rhode Island.

Big Green football picked to finish 4th in preseason poll

|

As the 2003 Ivy League football season draws nearer and observers of the Ancient Eight begin to predict what the coming season holds in store, one thing is certain when it comes to Dartmouth: the slogan for the Big Green's 2003 campaign, "Legacy Reborn," is more than just talk. At Ivy League Media Day, held on August 11 at the Yale Golf Course, the preseason media poll was released, and Dartmouth was picked to finish fourth, despite being one of only two Ivy teams not to return a starting quarterback from the 2002 season. In addressing the media gathered in New Haven, Dartmouth head coach John Lyons acknowledged that replacing Brian Mann '02, the Ivy League's total offense leader in 2002, will be a key to the Big Green's success this season, but expressed a great deal of confidence in projected starter Scott Wille '04.

Yanks, Sox make the right moves

|

With the Major League Baseball season winding down, and the passing of the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline, several contenders made bold moves to improve their clubs for the stretch run, while others decided to stand pat, citing fiscal constraints and a general lack of talent available with so many teams in the thick of the wild card race.

Armstrong grabs fifth straight Tour de France victory

|

It was his toughest win yet. But when Lance Armstrong rode down the Champs-Elysees in the yellow jersey for a record-tying fifth consecutive time on Sunday he permanently secured his position among the great cyclists in Tour de France history. The 31-year-old Texan joins Spanish great Miguel Indurain as the only two riders to have won cycling's most grueling and prestigious race five times in a row -- a record Armstrong will look to break next summer. "It's a dream, really a dream," Armstrong said in French to the media after once again ascending the Paris podium in yellow.

Baseball deals important as trade deadline looms

|

With Major League Baseball's non-waiver trade deadline just over a week away, rumors abound as to which teams will act as "buyers" to stockpile talent for a potential pennant race, and which teams will be "sellers," offering high-priced veterans in return for prospects that may (or may not) be able to help them in coming years.

Golf: Possibly a healthy alternative to class

|

As someone for whom going to class this term can best be described as a secondary activity, I've decided I should invest the mental energy normally directed to my primary reason for being at Dartmouth into what has overtaken academics in importance -- golf. I've been playing more than is healthy, seriously.
