Hockey earns national ranking

By Dan Weinberg | January 9, 2003

The Dartmouth men's hockey team improved to 9-4 (5-2 ECAC) by winning the Thompson-hosted Ledyard National Bank Auld Lang Syne Classic and picking up its first road victory. The team shook a monkey off its back down I-89 by coming from behind to beat the University of Vermont at Gutterson Field House 3-2 to pick up a key road victory. Lee Stempniak '05 put Dartmouth on the board just 22 seconds into the matchup with the local rival Catamounts, tucking a Trevor Byrne '03 rebound past Shawn Conschafter. The Cats came back the next period, however, dominating play and putting up two goals while shutting down the Dartmouth offense.

Jim Tressel: Class Act

By Jesse Klempner | January 9, 2003

Ever look at someone and suddenly, unbidden, the thought "Old School" emerges from the depths? Not old school in the sense of Dr. J with a huge Afro or a helmet-less Bobby Orr, but rather a sense of pervading dignity and honor in the mold of Dean Smith or Joe Paterno.

Women's hoops almost topple defending champs

By Elliot Olshansky | January 8, 2003

One would expect that after winning the Ivy League with a 13-1 record in 2002 and being picked to win the league again in the preseason media poll, the Harvard women's basketball team, led by reigning Ivy Player of the Year Hana Peljto and 2002 Rookie of the Year Reka Cserny, would be confident in its abilities.

Women's icers perfect at home

By Tony Hao | January 6, 2003

While the rest of the school enjoyed a month of winter break, the women's ice hockey team tallied three consecutive victories in the friendly confines of Thompson Arena. The University of New Hampshire received a rude early Christmas present on Dec.

Rampaging Big Green dethrones No. 1 BC

By Dan Weinberg | November 27, 2002

Mike Oulette '06 one-timed a pass from classmate Hugh Jessiman '06 into the back of the net at 2:39 in an unexpected overtime period to give men's hockey a shocking come-from-behind win against top-ranked Boston College. Dartmouth (6-3, 4-2 ECAC) knocked off its second top-10 opponent in the midst of a five-game winning streak (Dartmouth beat No.

Men's soccer Ivy co-champs meet a bittersweet end

By Brad Limpert | November 27, 2002

There was no Dick Vitale talking about who would be cutting down the nets at the Final Four, and no one was likely scrambling to set up an office pool as the teams were announced, but last Monday's NCAA tournament selection show had all the excitement of March Madness for the Dartmouth men's soccer team. Unfortunately, the Big Green's name never came up, as the squad was snubbed for a bid in the field of 48.

Behind a stellar performance by Gillian Apps '06, the Big Green women's hockey team finished its season sweep of the Catamounts with an 8-0 blow-out on Wednesday night at Gutterson Fieldhouse. In two shutouts, Dartmouth out-shot Vermont 124-11 and registered a total of 15 goals.

Women ballers open season

By Keil Hur | November 22, 2002

The waiting is over. After consecutive losing seasons-- Dartmouth's first back-to-back campaigns under .500 in its 17 seasons with head coach Chris Wielgus -- the Big Green women's basketball team is ready to attempt a return to their tradition of excellence. The Big Green, which won 13 Ivy League championships between 1980 and 2000, spent the last two seasons in mediocrity while rebuilding its roster.

Revved-up Big Green hosts Eli, Tigers this weekend

By Dan Weinberg | November 22, 2002

This weekend, the Dartmouth men's hockey team will look to continue its dominance at Thompson Arena against Yale and Princeton. Last weekend, the Big Green (3-3-0, 2-2-0 ECAC, 1-2-0 Ivy) slapped around Colgate for some much-needed confidence heading into the evenutal upset of Cornell. Dartmouth put out as much of a veteran line-up as it could muster against the Big Red, and the older guys produced.

By James Lamb | November 20, 2002

A successful fall season characterized by dedication, perseverance and heart came to an end for the Dartmouth sailing team as the Big Green sailors competed in championship regattas over the past two weekends. Powerful performances in earlier qualifying regattas earned Dartmouth a berth in the respective Atlantic Coast Championships for the freshmen and women's teams.

Big Green takes on Bears for potential share of Ivy title

By Brad Limpert | November 15, 2002

The men's soccer team has only one thing left to do during its regular season campaign, and that is to take care of Brown. For the second time in three years, all the chips get placed on the table as Dartmouth (8-7-1, 4-1-1 Ivy) and Brown (5-7-4, 1-3-2 Ivy) meet with the Ivy League title still on the line. Unlike two years ago, however, Brown has no shot at the championship.

Football records in the balance against winless Brown

By Elliot Olshansky | November 15, 2002

This season, Memorial Field has seen its share of exciting action, as all of the Big Green football team's home games have been decided by eight or fewer points. In fact, the action on the field has been rivaled only by the action in the stands, which has included the antics of a moose mascot, the screams of nine shirtless fans braving 30-degree Homecoming weather and the Dartmouth College Marching Band's new arrangement of the theme from "Back to the Future." That music will be truly appropriate this week, as Dartmouth (3-5, 2-3 Ivy) will be looking to go "back to the future" and recapture the form the team had earlier in the season, as Dartmouth enjoyed its first three-game winning streak since 1997 and looked ready to close the door on the difficulties that plagued the team over the last four years. According to defensive tackle Matt DeGutes '03, the key to a Dartmouth victory this Saturday over the Brown Bears (0-8, 0-5 Ivy) lies in the team's attitude. "We came out last week [against Cornell] with a desire to not lose," DeGutes said.

Green looks for more magic vs. Cornell and Colgate

By Dan Weinberg | November 15, 2002

Last season, when Dartmouth hosted Cornell and Colgate on Feb. 15 and 16, Jamie Herrington '02 generated enough electricity to power the Granite State with a pair of breath-taking, game-winning goals. This time around, the season is young and so is the Dartmouth team.

Women's rugby club earns national tournament berth

By Annie Snider | November 14, 2002

This past weekend, the Dartmouth Women's Rugby Club started out with a 33-5 loss to Vassar but showed tremendous resilience by bouncing back to defeat Amherst 29-0 and earn a berth to the National Tournament in the spring. The Vassar game started out on a good note for Dartmouth, as second-row Amanda Behm '04 came out firing and nearly ran through the ball carrier on the first tackle of the game. Energized, the DWRC drove down the field to the Vassar try-line but couldn't capitalize.

Men's tennis turns in singles, doubles wins at home

By Stu Adam | November 13, 2002

When debating which word in the English language best describes the Dartmouth men's tennis team's performance over the past weekend, the first and most logical choice is "domination." The players' fall season culminated with glorious results that are hopefully indicative of success in the winter and spring Ivy League seasons. The Green played host to its very own invitational tournament in the last individual event for Dartmouth before the team season kicks off this winter, where players will have the added pressure of the head-to-head format. In all, 48 players showed up on Saturday morning from various bastions of academic pursuit, including Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Boston College, Rutgers, Colgate, the University of New Hampshire and Brown.
