Kissling shows promise this year

|

As predicted by coach David Faucher prior to the season opener, junior starting forward Mark Kissling's game has improved dramatically this season, making him warrant much more playing time than he saw last year. Apparently, it is an improved confidence in his own game that is producing results this year, including a career-high 19 points against Harvard last Saturday.

There's nothing like a little home cooking around the holidays. Just ask the Dartmouth men's hockey team, who hosted the 16th Ledyard National Bank Auld Lang Syne Classic on December 29th and 30th. Playing before sellout crowds at an electric Thompson Arena, the Big Green (4-7-0) did not disappoint the hometown fans.

M. basketball lacks holiday break spirit

After beginning the month with a 65-58 defeat at Lehigh and a 70-50 victory at home versus Haverford, the men dropped a heartbreaking one-point loss to Harvard in Cambridge.
