Soccer's Eastman '99 named Academic All-American

|

At some schools, the term "student-athlete" is an oxymoron. But Suzanne Eastman '99, an All-American soccer player who yesterday was named to the GTE/CoSIDA Academic All-America Team, reaffirmed its validity at Dartmouth. Eastman was one of 16 athletes on the first team, comprised of women in fall and winter NCAA sports other than volleyball and basketball. She is Dartmouth's 16th Academic All-American, and the only Ivy Leaguer on this year's first team. Eastman, the two-time All-Ivy defender who joined teammate Kristin Luckenbill '01 on the All-America team this year, helped the women's soccer team to its first Ivy League title in six years and to the quarterfinals of the NCAA Tournament this past fall. Eastman, the Environmental Studies major from Brightwaters, NY, owns a 3.64 GPA. "She's basically an all-around leader -- the heart of our team," Luckenbill said.

Is it do-or-die for Green baseball?

|

That being said, the Big Green baseball team's Ivy League opening road-trip this weekend is not a must-win situation. If Dartmouth was to lose all four games to Columbia and Pennsylvania, the season would not be lost.

Softball sweeps doubleheader against Quinnipiac

|

After a slow start to their season, Dartmouth softball turned things around Thursday, sweeping a doubleheader from the Braves of Quinnipiac College at Sachem Field. Freshman Sarah Damon was excited about the team's growth and improvement. "We played crisp and clean, and we didn't have any errors," Damon said.

Playoff would resolve Ivy ties

|

If you've been wondering what happens if the women's basketball team winds up tied for first place in the Ivies at the season's end, the answer has arrived. The Ivy League publicly announced its way of resolving ties yesterday: teams with identical Ivy records will enter a playoff at Lehigh University's Stabler Arena on Friday, March 5. The women's team, which currently stands one game behind Princeton for first place, will face Brown and Yale at home this weekend before traveling to Harvard next Tuesday night.

Pride of the Red Sox

|

I'm a Red Sox fan. Always have been, always will be. Where I come from, it's sacrilege to root for the BoSox, and I've taken nothing but flack (defined as name-calling, elbow-throwing, and good-natured drunken heckling in the Yankee Stadium bleachers) for it.
