The Dartmouth track team and the indoor track at Boston University have had a sort of love affair over the past few seasons.

A little rest and some clarity -- that is what this weekend will provide for the Dartmouth men's hockey team. The Big Green has a rare one-game slate this weekend, taking on Brown in an important Ivy League and ECAC affair tomorrow night in Providence. The one gamer will give the team an extra day of rest to mend some of its bruises and will also help the typically chaotic ECAC standings come more into focus. Dartmouth (10-8-4, 7-4-4 ECAC) currently has 18 points and is tied for second place with Harvard and Clarkson -- five points behind Cornell -- but the Big Green and Crimson have played 15 games, while the other 10 teams in the league have played only 14. This weekend, Dartmouth and Harvard each play once while the other 10 play twice, which will level out the games-played category and help everyone -- the title-seeking Big Green included -- know where they stand. "This weekend may add clarity in terms of which teams are near the top of the standings and which are near the bottom," co-captain Mike Maturo '02 said.
Junior forward Carly Haggard (Port Alberni, B.C.) has been named one of the 10 finalists for the 2002 Patty Kazmaier Memorial Award.

"The other nine nominees are great players," she added.

Two Ivy Matchups Set for Leede Arena
The Dartmouth women's basketball team (5-11, 1-2 Ivy) is a road team if there ever was one. All five of the Dartmouth's wins have come in the unfriendly confines of other gymnasiums, and this weekend it hopes to add two more as the Big Green women continue their Ivy League campaign at Yale and at Brown. January was not a kind month to the women, who have been 1-5 since the New Year.
It would be easy to look at the Ivy League records of Yale and Brown and jump to the conclusion that the Big Green men's basketball team is in for a long weekend in Leede Arena. Both the Bulldogs and the Bears are 3-1, while Dartmouth is 0-4.
Same teams, different venue. The Dartmouth men's hockey team will look to have equal, or greater, success against the same opponents it faced last weekend when Rensselaer and Union invade Thompson Arena tonight and tomorrow. The Big Green (9-8-3, 6-4-3 ECAC) earned three of four points against the Albany-based squads last weekend, tying Union, 3-3, Friday night before staging a dramatic comeback to double up RPI, 4-2, last Saturday. Coming off the successful weekend, the team is confident and looking to defend its home ice. "The team has been in a good mood all week due to the positive games we had last weekend," forward Gary Hunter '02.
Rivalries in pro and college sports are conceived and born in many different ways. Some are geographic (Mets-Yankees), some are based on a long history (Harvard-Yale) and some come about because both teams happen to very good at the same time (Celtics-Lakers). Rivalries are at their most intense when both teams are at the top of their sport.
