Men's Ice Hockey: Get Out the Shotguns, It's Hockey Season

By Dan Weinberg | October 25, 2002

For those of you who can't wait any longer or just need something to get your mind off the grind, consider yourself lucky that the Dartmouth men's hockey team returns to action tonight. The Big Green steps onto the ice here at Thompson Arena for an exhibition match against the University of Guelph at 7 p.m. The visiting Gryphons hail from Ontario, Canada, which you probably could have guessed at if you considered their take on what would otherwise be the "Griffins." Mutated eagle-lion freaks from hell aside, Guelph should be able to put a young home team to work. "They're gonna have 26-year-olds going against our 18-year-old guys, but it will be a good contest for us, get used to playing some real hockey," co-captain Trevor Byrne '03 said. The nine Dartmouth freshmen will get their first taste of college hockey, and probably a fair amount of playing time, as Coach Bob Gaudet '81 tweaks the eventual lines for the regular season. "My hope is that we get to see most, if not all, of the young players play," Gaudet said.

By Ali Youssefi | October 18, 2002

In the opening minutes of the contest, Amanda Malgari '03 found Lauren Welsh '03 for the lone goal of the game. Welsh, Dartmouth's career goals leader, scored the game-winning goal for the third time this season.

Fiedler '94 stars in dramatic Dolphin victory

By Christopher LaForgia | October 16, 2002

Jay Fiedler '94, after breaking his thumb with less than four minutes left, led the Miami Dolphins from behind to defeat the Denver Broncos 24-22. The win quiets the doubters of Fiedler as he won possibly his biggest NFL game and put the Dolphins record to 5-1. Peter King of "Sports Illustrated" said the game was "was an instant classic," and "should go down as one of the best games ever played." The players felt the same way.

Freshman star leads golfers

By Jason Edgar | October 11, 2002

One-hit wonder? Think again. Chaki Kobayashi '06 continued his inspired play of recent weeks, posting a 73-76 -- 149 to lead the Dartmouth men's golf team to a seventh-place finish at the Army Invitational. Kobayashi once again rode his exceptional touch around the greens to success, placing 10th individually. "I really hit the ball terribly [this weekend] but got up and down from everywhere," the freshman said on Monday. Kobayashi hinted that his best is yet to come, responding wishfully, "I just can't wait until my ball-striking comes around, because then I know I will go really low." The Big Green men will certainly settle for the brilliance he has displayed on the course thus far.

Potent Big Green aerial attack looks to overwhelm Yale

By Elliot Olshansky | October 11, 2002

Call them the Big Green Party Crashers. Last October, with a winless Big Green team coming into the Yale Bowl to take on an undefeated Bulldog squad, the contest capping off Yale's Tercentennial Weekend looked to be a celebration on the field to match the celebration off of it. That notion was, in time, put to rest, as Dartmouth quarterback Greg Smith '02 threw for 407 yards and tied a Yale Bowl record with five touchdown passes to lead the Big Green to a 32-27 victory, raining on the Bulldogs' Tercentennial parade in the process. The Bulldogs never quite recovered from the loss, and finished the 2001 season with a 3-6 record, tying Dartmouth for last in the Ivy League with a 1-6 conference mark. One year later, Dartmouth (0-3, 0-1 Ivy) is in a similar position, as the Green will once again take on an undefeated Yale squad (3-0, 1-0 Ivy). This time, however, the men in Green will be playing within the friendly confines of Memorial Field, as they look once again to end Yale's undefeated streak, and put the first notch in their own win column. For their part, the Bulldogs are likely still fuming from last year's loss, and will be looking for revenge as they roll into Hanover, fresh off of a 28-19 win over Holy Cross last Saturday at the Yale Bowl, their 11th consecutive non-conference win since 1998. Despite their early season success, the Bulldogs come into Saturday's game with a glaring weakness: their passing game.
