Strong season finale for men's rugby team

By John Harlow | May 9, 2002

On a crystal clear, beautiful New Hampshire spring day, the Dartmouth Rugby Football Club ended its official Spring season by beating Northeastern University 27-10, but the game was actually much more lopsided than the result would indicate.

Dartmouth enters ECAC tourney looking for gold

Will the third time be a charm? That is what the Dartmouth softball team is hoping as it looks forward to a third consecutive appearance in the East Coast Athletic Conference Tournament, which takes place next Saturday and Sunday at Soldier Field in Cambridge, Mass. The conference confirmed widely held speculation when it announced the field for this year's tournament early yesterday afternoon from the league headquarters on Cape Cod. All four participants are from the Ivy League.

Men's Lacrosse: Battle for Ivy Cellar Comes Down to Final Game

By Brad Limpert | May 3, 2002

John Travolta won't be there and the players won't be wearing bell-bottoms, but the men's lacrosse team will have its own little version of "Saturday Night Fever" tomorrow in Boston. The Big Green (6-6, 0-5 Ivy) hits the road for its season finale under the lights at Harvard (7-7, 0-5 Ivy). While the Ivy League championship will be settled down the road between Brown and Princeton, don't tell either the Big Green or the Crimson that this game doesn't matter. Saturday night's contest pits two teams searching for their first Ivy League win, trying to end their season with a winning record and not too mention the bitterness of the Harvard-Dartmouth rivalry. If any team can sympathize with Dartmouth's roller coaster ride of a season, it would undoubtedly be Harvard.

As John Belushi so demonstratively states in "Animal House", "When the going gets tough, the tough get going." This motto could have been the new battle cry of the Big Green baseball team during the past week's slew of home games. With their backs against the wall, the Big Green men triumphed in four out of five games this past week while displaying a determination and perseverance not shown yet this season.

An '02 makes a grudging journey to the Boston Marathon

By Page Kyle | May 2, 2002

I swear I never wanted to run a marathon. As far as I was concerned, running a marathon was one of those things you can always do if you find your life too boring: train real hard for several months, push yourself to new levels of exertion and discover something worthwhile about yourself in the process of resolving the underlying boredom or lameness complex.
