The other is 3-1 in the conference, winners of three of the last five Ivy automatic bids and has Michael Jordan as their starting point guard. The Princeton Tigers and Pennsylvania Quakers come into Leede Arena with wonderful resumes, but, as of late, the Big Green have proved that they are going to make things tough for their visitors.

|

The Big Green's momentous 65-64 upset of Navy last Saturday afternoon has finally given them the momentum they need heading into the rest of their Ivy schedule. This weekend, Dartmouth hits the road to take on Ancient Eight rivals Yale and Brown in an effort to sweep the weekend and even their Ivy mark at 3-3. The Big Green's only league victory came earlier this month against Harvard, but Dartmouth figures to grab at least one victory on the trip as they tangle Saturday with the Bears who are winless in the Ivy League. The Big Green will get a glimpse of All-Ivy quarterback James Perry on the basketball court as he directs the Brown offense at the guard position. Before they play Perry, Dartmouth must first deal, however, with Yale in New Haven on tonight.
