Men's hockey falls to Cornell, completes sweep of Colgate

|

Dartmouth knew what had to be done this weekend. Going into this weekend with a four game winless streak, the Big Green realized they had to come away with some points to stay in the hunt for a playoff berth. After dropping a hard-fought 5-3 game to Cornell on Friday, Saturday's game became even more imperative for Dartmouth.

Over the Weekend

SKIING: At the completion of the second day of races at the Skiway this weekend, the Big Green took second place behind Vermont at the Dartmouth Winter Carnival. Vermont continues to dominate the carnival circuit this year. In the Giant Slalom alpine races, both the Big Green men and women had solid, second place days. MEN'S SQUASH: The Big Green, ranked sixth in the nation, set a school record for wins in a season on Saturday as they defeated Hobart, 7-2. In another match that same day, Darmtouth fell to fifth-ranked Franklin and Marshall. SWIMMING: The men's swim team fell to 2-9 overall (0-9 EISL) as they lost to Yale, Harvard and Cornell this weekend. The women's team also fell to the Bulldogs this weekend by a score of 176-199. TRACK: Captain Pilar Rodriguez '97 won three events on the women's side as several Dartmouth students stood out in a track and field meet at Leverone Fieldhouse this weekend.

Meanwhile, junior Jenna Rogers earned an NCAA provisional qualifying time of 9:29.82 in the 3,000 at the Valentine's Classic at Boston University. At the Millrose Games at Madison Square Garden, senior Adam Nelson placed third in the shot put event.

Women's basketball splits on the road

|

A blowout. It seemed like just the thing to get the Dartmouth women's basketball out of their funk, but despite Friday night's 80-61 victory over Yale, the team dropped Saturday's contest to Brown, 81-73. Friday's battle displayed the Big Green (7-10, 2-3 Ivy) at their finest, with Bess Tortolani '98 pouring in 20 points for the Green, and Nicci Rinaldi '99 sinking 17, in addition to her seven assists. "We played very well together, and came out firing right from the beginning," said Courtney Banghart '00. The main difference between this performance and those of weeks past was shooting.
