Kickers Take Aim at Hawks

|

This is the biggest opportunity for the Dartmouth Big Green men's soccer team in a long time. Still reeling from four tough losses in a row--despite outplaying 24th-ranked Yale last Saturday--the booters have a great opportunity to break out of their funk against the Hartwick Hawks this Saturday at Chase Field. The Hawks come in to Hanover riding the same rough horse as Dartmouth.

Crew to Rochester

|

The Dartmouth varsity men's heavyweight crew team begins its fall campaign this weekend, as the team heads to the Stonehurst Capitol Regatta just outside of Rochester. Coming off a successful trip to England this summer, the heavies are hoping to bring their success to this side of the Atlantic. Coach Scott Armstrong, who prefers to focus on the all-important sprint season in the spring, utilizes the fall races as a testing ground for different lineups. "We'll put some of the stronger guys into a top boat for the Head of the Charles and Stonehurst race to test out some combinations," Armstrong said.

Squad splits for weekend

|

It'll be double duty for cross-country this weekend. Friday and Saturday see not only the New England Championships for the Dartmouth men's and women's cross country teams, but also the pre-NCAA meet down South in Furman, S.C. Coaches Barry Harwick '77 (men's) and Ellen O'Neil '87 (women's) are faced with the prospect of splitting their squads since the geographical logistics make it impossible to compete in both meets. The decision is made easier because the Furman meet is more important.

Volleyball's Dean: scrappy, selfless, and consistent

|

It isn't hard to elicit a positive opinion about Ashley Dean '02. Just ask anyone who plays alongside the volleyball tri-captain. "Ashley Dean is an amazing volleyball player, teammate and person," sophomore setter Chelsea Morgan says of the outside hitter, expressing an opinion typical of those who don the Green and White. A native Californian, Dean began her competitive career as a freshman at La Jolla High School.

Wanted: Vengeful Longhorns

|

"It's 10:28 p.m. Texas time and OU still sucks." That is what ousucks.com read last night on the night before the eve of Saturday's football game between The University of Texas Longhorns and Oklahoma University Sooners. Being lucky enough to call myself "a born-again Texan" (someone who saw the light and moved to Texas before it was too late), it has taken me only a short time to realize what every true Texan learns right after their mother gives birth to them " that OU sucks! Sure, last year OU beat Texas 63-14 in what was a very lopsided game in OU's favor.
