Volleyball closes out season

By Justin Evans | November 19, 1996

"Ughhh," said Janna Merryfield '00 after the women's volleyball team was eliminated from the Ivy League Tournament this weekend. Indeed, it was a weekend of frustration for the Big Green, as the team's high hopes were dashed by a loss to Harvard on Friday, 15-12, 15-13, 6-15, 16-14, and a loss in the consolation bracket to Yale on Saturday, 15-12, 15-7, 16-14. After a loss to the fourth-seeded Crimson earlier this season, the Big Green were looking for revenge, but a slow start hurt the team. "Harvard came out more ready to play," Coach Ann Marie Larese said.

Men's hockey splits over weekend

By Ben Riefe | November 18, 1996

The first road trip of the year is always a test for any team. When that trip involves dealing with two of the toughest teams and the most raucous crowds in the ECAC, the situation certainly becomes even less favorable. But the Big Green men's hockey team was determined not to let the conditions affect their ability to simply go out and play good hockey.

Women's basketball kicks off season with home exhibition

By Justin Evans | November 13, 1996

Their English may have been lacking, but the players on Spartak Prerov, a women's basketball team from the Czech Republic, sure knew how to play the game created and made a success by Americans. On a road trip that takes them to 10 different campuses in the Northeast, the Czechs spoiled the home opener of the Dartmouth women's team by defeating the Big Green 67-64 in an exhibition game that came down to the closing seconds. Spartak Prerov's three straight airballs to open the game, and Dartmouth's turnovers indicated opening jitters on both sides.

Men's soccer ties Columbia in OT

By Brian Fleming | November 12, 1996

When the Dartmouth men's soccer team stepped onto a muddy Chase Field on Sunday, it knew it was out to earn some respect from its Ivy League foe, Columbia, and salvage the remains of what has been an up and down season with a victory. The Big Green certainly did earn some respect on Sunday grinding out a gritty performance, but they fell short of the win, settling for a 1-1 tie with the Lions. With the tie Dartmouth now stands at 6-7-2 overall and 2-2-2 in Ivy League play.

Women's soccer closes out season

By Amy Hatch | November 11, 1996

Old age and experience won out yesterday afternoon, as the women's soccer team dismantled a young Columbia Lions team 2-0 at Chase Field. It was the battle between a strong Dartmouth soccer program that for the past four years has been a symbol of Ivy dominance and a young Columbia program that until this year has consistently held a place in the Ivy League cellar. It was the battle between two leading scorers -- Dartmouth's Jenna Kurowski '97 who has led the Big Green this season with 14 goals and five total points (third in the league) and Columbia's Tosh Forde who lead the league in scoring with 44 points. And finally, it was the battle between nine Dartmouth seniors who played in their final regular season game and seven Columbia freshmen who have three years left of looking ahead. But by the time 90 minutes had passed by on a soggy Chase Field it became obvious that the Dartmouth women were the teachers; the Columbia youngsters were the students; and there still was a lot more to be learned. Dartmouth outshot Columbia 25-2, as Big Green goalie Annie Eckstein '98 needed to make only one save to earn the win. "I think we played well," Captain Holly Thomas '97 said.
