Big Green athletes garner All-Ivy honors

By Jonathan A. Lee | March 7, 1997

With the announcement of its All-Conference Teams yesterday, the Ivy League honored several Big Green athletes for their excellence on the fields of play. Dartmouth's Sea Lonergan '97 and Bess Tortolani '98 were both awarded First Team All-Ivy Basketball honors, as decided by the league's eight head coaches. In women's hockey, the Big Green's Sarah Hood '98 and Amy Coelho '97 were also graced with First Team All-Ivy honors. With his third consecutive appearance on the Ivy League's First Team, Lonergan became the 20th player in league history to take top honors in three seasons.

Big Green scores 90-78 upset over Brown Bears

By Jonathan A. Lee | March 3, 1997

If this weekend were a movie, the women's basketball team would surely skip finals and just sit around watching it over and over again until the VCR blew out. Yup, this weekend's 90-78 upset over Brown (10-4) and the mind-boggling 63-48 comeback win over Yale (6-8) the next night would've really made for a great movie -- complete with some Oscar-worthy performances and a few rocks stars here and there. The opening scene against Brown was explosive as the Big Green's Bess Tortolani '98 drained an in-your-face triple to light up the scoreboard.

Women's hoops plays Brown, Yale at Leede Arena: With Ivy League title out of reach, Big Green seniors will play for pride in their last home game series

By Justin Evans | February 28, 1997

Though their Ivy League title hopes are no more, the women's basketball team will be looking to play the spoiler role this weekend, when the third-place Big Green(6-5) host second-place Brown(10-3) and fourth-place Yale(6-6). Against Brown earlier in the season, Dartmouth was on the receiving end of a 80-61 trouncing. Senior co-Captain Sally Annis hopes the team will improve upon their defensive and rebounding effort from their loss earlier this month. The pressure is on the Bears, however, who have to win all three of their remaining league games to have any shot at winning the title. Traveling to Yale on the same road trip as their loss to Brown, the Big Green downed the Elis 81-73.

Athlete of the Week

By The Dartmouth | February 26, 1997

Last spring, skier Dave Viele '98 blew out his knee. This past fall, he blew out his other knee. Then, this weekend, Viele proceeded to blow out the competition as he won the men's slalom event at the Eastern Intercollegiate Skiing Association Championships at Middlebury. Viele's victory helped the Big Green clinch the men's two-day alpine competition.

Men's hockey battles Princeton, Yale at home

By Jonathan A. Lee | February 21, 1997

A two-game sweep over Princeton (9-7-2) and Yale (4-12-2) would be sweet for the Big Green this weekend. It's certainly something the players all want -- but more importantly, a sweep is something this team absolutely needs if it wants any chance of playing in the post-season. The Big Green are currently 10th in the ECAC, five slots south of the Tigers and one notch above the Bulldogs. "The implications of this weekend's games are enormous," said Head Coach Roger Demment.
