Bonjour, Boyd: Flinder joins French team Le Havre

By Elliot Olshansky | July 30, 2002

Every Dartmouth student is familiar with the line from the alma mater, "Though 'round the girdled earth they roam, her spell on them remains." However, Flinder Boyd '02 is taking those words quite literally. Boyd, a former captain of the Big Green men's basketball team, and Dartmouth's all-time single-game and career assists leader, recently signed a professional basketball contract with STB Le Havre of France's Ligue Nationale de Basketball (Division A). Boyd will join three other Big Green alumni playing professional basketball in Europe, including Greg Buth '01, Boyd's former teammate, who plays for the Spanish club Circulo Badajoz.

Halfway there: Hockey '04s look to retake ECAC title

By Elliot Olshansky | July 26, 2002

In their first season under head coach Judy Oberting '91, the three members of the Dartmouth women's hockey Class of 2004 put their names in the record books as they helped the Big Green women bring home their first ever ECAC championship, then skated for the Big Green in the inaugural NCAA Women's Frozen Four. However, according to defender Lesley Reiart '04, making history was the last thing on the minds of the '04s when they arrived in Hanover. "Coming in as a freshman, you really don't know what to expect as to the caliber of hockey you are going to be playing," said Reiart, "and you're not sure what your role is going to be.

Tiger seeks Grand Slam glory on unfamiliar course

By Rob Kim | July 16, 2002

This weekend, all eyes will be on the British Open at Muirfield, Scotland as Tiger Woods attempts to do something that Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus never did: win the first three major golf tournaments in one year and take one step closer to that seemingly unattainable Grand Slam of golf. With his rain-soaked victory at Bethpage Black last month and 8th major championship of his career, Tiger spent another major weekend nonchalantly playing his usual round of golf while his competitors scrambled to catch up and ultimately failed. Watching the last round of a major led by Tiger through three is about as entertaining as Sergio Garcia's pre-shot routine; most viewers spent more time looking for glimpses of Tiger's Swedish bikini-model girlfriend and Sergio's Swiss Miss, Martina Hingis, rather than the actual golf itself. To understand this rare situation, one must put the Grand Slam in perspective.

By Elliot Olshansky | June 20, 2002

When the Big Green men's basketball team takes the court in November for the beginning of the 2002-2003 season, former co-captains Flinder Boyd '02 and Vedad Osmanovic '02 will not be the only familiar faces missing from the Leede Arena floor.
