Sox Disappoint in AL, A's Look Golden

By Keil Hur | October 4, 2002

Following a truly exciting World Series and a tumultuous off-season that threatened to contract two teams, it was more of the same in the American League East marked by absolute mediocrity of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, absolute disappointment of the Boston Red Sox and the New York Yankees splurging on overpaid talents to win another division title. In all fairness to the Yankees, their high-price acquisitions, such as Raul Mondesi, Rondell White and John Vander Wal, were far less than scintillating.

Romera Doubles Up Northeastern While Terriers Can't Crack Carr

By Dan Weinberg | October 4, 2002

Juan Romera '03 knocked in a pair of goals, including the game winner in double overtime to give the Dartmouth men's soccer team a 2-1 victory over Northeastern on Wednesday at Parsons Field in Boston, Mass. Dartmouth improves to (2-4-0, 1-0-0 Ivy), while the Huskies now stand at 3-5-2 overall and have yet to a play a conference game in the America East. The Big Green has won two-straight overtime matches after losing two in a row of the sort to begin the 2002 season. With just two minutes and 17 seconds left to avoid the unsatisfying prospect of a tie, Zach Schwartz '02 sent a cross to Romera at the far post, who headed it past Northeastern keeper Sergio Saccoccio. The clincher marked Dartmouth's third goal in five games. "I suppose as far as offensive spark goes, we've had a lot of them in all of our games, we just haven't had a flame yet," Romera said. "Today the team worked hard to put it all together and get that flame." Behind one-nil at the half, the Big Green came out with a vengeance, scoring before five minutes had expired in the second half. Romera scored on a sliding shot off a feed from Princeton's worst nightmare, Rob Daly '04, to even the score at one apiece. "The first goal I scored was almost entirely Rob Daly's doing," Romera said. "He beat his defender and lured the goalie out and unselfishly slid it across the goal for an easy tap in for me." Northeastern scored the game's first goal, the only ball to beat goalkeeper Doug Carr '03 all day.

Big Green Needs Perfection for Penn

By Elliot Olshansky | October 4, 2002

To the casual observer, it would seem that this season's incarnation of the Big Green football team (0-2, 0-0 Ivy) is very similar to last season's, as the Dartmouth men have lost each of their first two games in the closing minutes. However, according to several members of head coach John Lyons' squad, such an observer would be wrong on two counts, as this year's squad is hardly similar to last year's, and neither game, according to preseason All-American tight end Casey Cramer '04, was lost in the final minutes. "I don't think that the first two games were lost in the last few minutes," Cramer said.

Women's tennis impressive in season opener

By Mark Sweeney | October 3, 2002

The Dartmouth women's tennis team jumped out to a terrific start in its 2002 fall season by posting numerous outstanding results in last weekend's Quinnipiac Invitational. In the singles A flight, the Big Green simply dominated the rest of the field, placing two Dartmouth players in the finals of that division.

Men's racketeers down Ivy foes at Yale Invitational

By Stu Adam | October 3, 2002

The Big Green's men racketeers have proven themselves a force of contention in the ECAC and the Ivy League after a strong performance at the Yale Invitational over the weekend. While Mother Nature demonstrates her omnipotence by dropping temperatures in the New England area and subsequently changing deciduous tree leaves to magnificent autumn reds, oranges and yellows, the thinking man resultantly understands the futility of his struggles against forces greater than himself.

New start with men's Ivy opener

By Brad Limpert | September 27, 2002

It is not often that a team gets a clean slate three weeks into its season, but that is exactly what the Dartmouth men's soccer team is looking forward to this weekend as it travels to Princeton University to open its Ivy League campaign. The Big Green (0-4 overall, 0-0 Ivy) is looking to get its first win of the year against a Tigers squad that's off to a similarly rough start (1-2-2, 0-0). Needless to say, the first three weeks of the 2002 season have not gone according to plan for the Dartmouth men.

Big Green women's soccer welcomes first home match

By Keil Hur | September 27, 2002

It has been a disappointing year for the Big Green women's soccer team. The team is struggling despite eight starters and 16 letter-winners returning from one of the most successful campaigns in its history, one that led the squad to an NCAA tournament berth last year. A series of tough losses against 16th-ranked Virginia and 23rd-ranked division rival Princeton have dropped the Big Green's record to 2-3-1 overall and 0-1-1 in the Ivy League. As the team dropped important matches, its ranking dropped as well; ranked No.
