McVeigh '03 breaks into the pro soccer ranks with the Charge

By Elliot Olshansky | May 23, 2003

Editor's Note: This is the third in a series of articles profiling former Dartmouth sports stars currently playing professionally. One might expect that after being the seventh player drafted in the 2003 Women's United Soccer Association Draft, Mary McVeigh '03 spent her winter term anticipating the excitement of her professional debut with the Philadelphia Charge. However, despite her status as a first-round draft pick, McVeigh seemed just as ready to return to Hanover for her senior spring to finish up her Dartmouth coursework as she was to embark on a professional soccer career. Now, though, as the spring term winds down in Hanover, McVeigh's rookie season with the Charge is in full swing.

Ausmus '91 produces Gold Gloves and success for Astros

By Elliot Olshansky | May 19, 2003

Brad Ausmus '91 admits that his Houston Astros teammates like to joke about where he went to college and "make fun of the prototypical Ivy League student that you see in the movies: smoking a pipe, wearing a sweater vest." It is difficult, however, to hold a pipe while wearing a Gold Glove, and the former Dartmouth government major has one for each hand. For the last two years, Ausmus has won the Rawlings Gold Glove Award, becoming the first catcher in Houston history to receive the honor, and establishing his reputation as one of baseball's elite catchers.
