Hockey All-American all about goals and the Hood

|

There was never any question that Sarah Hood '98 was a hockey fan. As a freshman, 47 hockey posters of varying sizes lined the walls of her one-room double in Topliff. Of course, today, four years later, there is no question that Sarah Hood has become a Dartmouth hockey legend. Tri-captain of her team, first team All-American, All-ECAC and All-Ivy, Sarah Devens Award winner, Ivy League Champion -- the list of honors goes on and on. But it's not just the list of awards that make Hood, a sports writer for The Dartmouth, an obvious athletic stand-out.

Heavyweight crew disappoints

|

When trying to assess the Big Green men's crew performance at Eastern Sprints this past weekend, one needs to look no further than the sentiments of men's crew coach Scott Armstrong: "Why settle for a consolation prize when you have a chance to be the best?" The heavyweight team disappointed with their 11th place finish out of 15 teams.

Athlete of the Week

|

Junior Alisa Antkowiak threw herself into the Dartmouth record book this past weekend by setting a school record in the hammer throw. Antkowiak's throw of 165'2" on her home field at the New England Track and Field Championships smashed the previous record of 159'6' by Marianne Chamberlin '94. The throw helped propel the Big Green to a fifth-place finish overall in the championships. "I had no idea it was that good of a throw until after the officials announced how far it had gone and I heard my friends and teammates cheering for me.

Green to host NCAA game against Loyola

|

For the Dartmouth women's lacrosse team, the time is now. If you have been under a rock for the past three months, the Big Green finished the season ranked fourth in the Brine/IWLCA poll with a regular season record of 12-2 and earned a spot in the NCAA tournament. Wins over tourney-bound Princeton and Duke, as well as a last-second loss to second-seeded North Carolina, earned Dartmouth the recognition it needed to garner the fourth seed in the tournament and the first-round bye and second-round home-field advantage that came with it. With only twelve teams in the NCAA Championships, the fifth-seeded Greyhounds of Loyola (Md.), who were squeaked out by the Big Green for the final bye, were forced to play the Division II qualifier, West Chester, in the opening round on Wednesday for the right to play Dartmouth in Hanover on Saturday in the quarterfinals. West Chester was the first Division II school ever to compete in the tournament and hung with the national power for the first 20 minutes of play, losing just 3-1.
