Always the Underdog

By Kelly Schneiter | March 29, 2000

This year's men's NCAA basketball tournament has been full of surprises, none of which are greater than the success of the Wisconsin Badgers. This past weekend the Badgers, along with Michigan State, Florida, and North Carolina, advanced to the Final Four for the first time since 1941.

Scopaz, Roda: scholar-athletes

By Mitch Yashiro | March 29, 2000

It takes talent and hard work to play a varsity sport while attending an Ivy League institution. But it takes a lot more to do well. Last week, two such Dartmouth seniors were awarded for their excellence both on the field and in classrooms. The College Sports Information Directors of America named Lauren Scopaz '00 and Katie Roda '00 to the District 1 GTE Academic All America At-Large team last week. Scopaz is the field hockey team's all-time scoring leader in every offensive category.

Conference Tournaments

By Kelly Schneiter | March 7, 2000

Surprising nobody, the University of Pennsylvania clinched its second consecutive Ivy League championship with a fairly easy victory over Yale on Saturday night, rendering their match-up with Princeton tonight relatively meaningless.

Penn stays perfect in Ivy League

By Austin Zalkin | March 7, 2000

With two wins over the weekend, the University of Pennsylvania men's basketball team wrapped up its second consecutive Ivy League championship -- its sixth in 10 years and its 20th in the last 31 campaigns. The Quakers took the Ivy title with 13 wins in 13 games.

M. hockey fights for home ice

By Mitch Yashiro | March 3, 2000

This weekend, the Dartmouth men's hockey team (9-13-4) will fight for home ice in the first round of ECAC playoffs, but they know one thing for sure. The youthful Big Green squad will be playing in the postseason for the first time since 1996. Dartmouth is currently tied for third place in the ECAC with a 8-8-3 conference record. Coming off a hard-fought 3-2 victory over the Cornell Big Red last Sunday, Dartmouth will play at Clarkson tonight and St.

W. icers host UNH, Providence

By Kevin Allen | March 3, 2000

Sometimes, seemingly little mistakes come back to haunt you. While the Dartmouth women's ice hockey team holds an impressive conference record of 16-6-0 and currently sits in third place, they know they could be higher. Uncharacteristic losses to weaker teams such as Niagara and Princeton seemed like mere speed bumps in a stellar season, but now they are more significant since the second place and fifth place teams are separated by only three points in the standings. How does this relate to this weekend's opponents you ask?

A League of Their Own

By Joe Gault | March 3, 2000

On Feb. 15, 2000, I was captivated by news that Discovery Channel CEO John Hendricks had raised $40 million in order to form the Women's United Soccer Association (WUSA), a premier professional women's soccer league. The idea comes on the heels of 1999's most memorable sporting event -- the Women's World Cup.

Although there are many stories behind the Dartmouth women's ice hockey team and their successful run this season, perhaps one of the quieter ones has been that of junior co-captain Carrie Sekela.

If the shoe fits...

In the era of Who Wants to Marry a Multimillionaire? and other shameless and fruitless attempts at true love, the Cinderella mythos has gently fallen by the wayside. But in some places, drama and romance remain.

Green head to N.Y. for two games

By Austin Zalkin | March 2, 2000

Coming off losses to the Ivy League's top two teams in Hanover, the Dartmouth men's basketball team (8-17, 4-8) will face the third- and last-place teams this weekend in New York State. Tomorrow night the Big Green will battle to stay out of the Ancient Eight cellar when they take on Cornell (10-15, 3-9). The Big Red, like the Green, were expected to finish near the top of the standings before the year began, but instead have struggled to win at all. Until winning twice at home last weekend, the Big Red had only garnered a single League victory.

The Dominance Continues?

By Kelly Schneiter | March 1, 2000

Just over two weeks from now, 64 NCAA Division I college basketball teams will embark on a mission to reach the Holy Grail of hoops, the Final Four. As happens every year, some small conference team, maybe Indiana State or Kent or Pepperdine, will shock everyone but themselves and win a game or two against major conference teams.

Harvard, Penn remain in second

By Christopher J. Smith | March 1, 2000

Last weekend, Harvard and Penn received a golden opportunity to reclaim first place in the Ivy League -- which Dartmouth took over two weeks ago -- after the Big Green lost at Princeton on Saturday. But Penn lost its Friday match-up with Dartmouth and then on Saturday defeated the Crimson, who had earlier beaten Princeton, giving all three of the League's top teams a 1-1 weekend and maintaining the standings with the Big Green still leading by a game. Harvard 47, Princeton 43 The Harvard women's basketball team (15-8, 8-3 Ivy) narrowly avoided a significant upset Friday to retain second place in the Ivy League with a victory at Princeton (7-18, 4-7). The two teams played closely throughout, with six ties and six lead changes.

The top-ranked team in ECAC men's hockey, St. Lawrence, continued to excel in the conference with two victories over the weekend, while the team that had held third place alone, RPI, dropped two games to end up in a four-way tie at third. Princeton picked up a pair of wins against two Ivy League foes as it ascended to the third place tie.
