Love at first sight

|

Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Maybe you realized this truism just three days ago when you cuddled up with a loved one who studies far away, but who managed to come and celebrate the day for lovers.

Quakers claw Tigers in men's hoops

|

The Penn Quakers (14-7, 7-0) maintained their undefeated Ivy mark and upped their League lead to two games with a 55-46 victory at second-place Princeton (13-9, 5-2) on Tuesday night. A 360-degree slam dunk by Penn forward Ugonna Onyekwe with a few seconds remaining gave closure to a game that had been closely contested throughout. Princeton jumped in front with an early 12-6 lead, but the Quakers responded with a 14-0 run and led 25-18 at halftime. The Tigers got as close as 40-38 with 5:55 left in the game when their star of the game, Mason Rocca, hit a pair of free throws.

Wilgosh '99 succeeds in the pros

|

Curtis Wilgosh '99 will be remembered by many who met him during his years at Dartmouth as affable, gregarious and big (6'2", 200 lbs.). But most of all, people will remember his presence on ice. As a center for the Dartmouth men's hockey team, the Saskatchewan native played in 110 games, while netting 28 goals, 42 assists and 70 points.

Suspended sentences

Recruiting violations and improper benefits. Those words must sound like fingernails on a chalkboard to any respectable college basketball coach.

Dartmouth skiers finish third

|

Scott McArt '01 skied to his best finish of the season under the white-covered trees of Oak Hill, while Gusty Swift '01 carved through the soft snow on Worden's Schuss en route to the best Alpine finish for Dartmouth on day one of Winter Carnival last Friday. The several inches of wet snow that accumulated through midday helped the cross-country racecourse and had limited effects on the Alpine racing hill. "It was actually kind of painful," said McArt after the 15k freestyle race.

Keg jump returns to Psi U after hiatus in 1999

|

One drunken frat boy. A bunch of kegs lined up in a row. Could anything better represent man's never-ending struggle to conquer nature? The brothers of Psi Upsilon fraternity meet once a year to try to answer this complex question, or at least to get slightly inebriated in public. Returning from a one-year hiatus, Psi U is holding its 19th annual Keg Jump this Winter Carnival weekend.

Give the man his stripes

|

When? What WILL it take? Winning all four Grand Slam events on the PGA Tour? The eclipse of Byron Nelson's consecutive win record of 11 PGA tournaments that sportswriter after sportswriter listed as the most difficult record to break in sports? Hitting the ball further than Happy Gilmore on steroids every time to the tee? For the last two years, it seems that no one will recognize Tiger Woods as the greatest golfer in the world.
