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.
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.
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.

The trading deadline has come and gone and while the waiver market is still open, most major moves are done in the world of baseball.
Tradition and experience give Yankees an edge
One hundred seventeen schools around the country are getting ready for the 2003 NCAA football season.
Over 10,000 spectators packed the stands for the 50th Annual Maple Sugar Shrine Bowl on Saturday at Memorial Field.
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.
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.
In only 10 short days, the NFL will be back in action when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers take on the New York Jets in the first preseason game.
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.

Among hundreds of top professional and college athletes nominated for one of thirty-three annual ESPY awards is Dartmouth College class of 2001 graduate Kristin Luckenbill '01.
Call it a "Lucky" break. While Kristen Luckenbill '01 was the brick wall behind Dartmouth's women's soccer success in the late '90s, the Women's United Soccer Association did not exist.
With the announcement of the Major League Baseball's All-Star Game rosters, America's true favorite pastime -- second-guessing the selections -- can begin in earnest.
After posting impressive victories on Wednesday and Thursday, all three Dartmouth crews were eliminated on Friday at the Henley Royal Regatta at Henley-on-Thames, England. The men's lightweight eight lost to Harvard in the quarterfinals of the Temple Cup.
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.
