The Big Green squash team came the under fire of big time squash powerhouses, Trinity and Amherst, last week. "We've seen how we match up against top 10 teams," freshman Beau River said, "and now we got a taste for how the top four are." Ranked second in the country, behind Harvard, the Lord Jeffs rolled into Hanover last Wednesday. In an mostly uncontested matchup, Amherst routed Dartmouth 9-0. River, who challenged one of the top ranked squash players in the nation, took the first set, but he couldn't fight off the barrage of huge shots from his opponent. Down two sets, co-Captain John Gabel '98 stepped up his game enough to snag the third and fourth sets. However, he couldn't hold off his opponent in the fifth as he fell, 3-2. On Saturday, the Big Green traveled down to Trinity College to face Vassar and a talent-soaked Trinity squad. Dartmouth had little trouble against Vassar, dismantling them in a 9-0 rampage. But then there was Trinity. Like the Amherst squad before them, Trinity proved too much for the Big Green.

Something had to give in Tuesday night's match-up between the Big Green and the Providence College Friars. Dartmouth entered Schneider Arena with a perfect 4-0 record against Hockey East opponents, while the Friars were trying to stop their ECAC nightmares after going 0-5 against the conference. Sweet dreams came to Providence Tuesday night as they managed a 5-2 victory over the Big Green, even though each squad seemed to wish they didn't have to play at all. The loss dropped Dartmouth to the .500 mark, at 9-9, as they kicked off a tough four game road trip that brings them to Burlington, Vermont on Saturday to face UVM. For a team that got hot at the end of last season and won the Hockey East tournament, Providence entered Tuesday's game playing surprisingly mediocre hockey. Their strength lied in their experienced forward, and All-American candidate in goal -- Dan Dennis. However, the Friar's decided to rest their senior star, and go instead with untested sophomore Mark Kane.
Scoring one goal in a hockey game is good. Scoring two goals in a game is even better. And scoring three goals in a game is definitely someting to write home about, right? Well, what if you're like sophomore forward Ryan Chaytors and you decide to dent the net three times in a single period?
The women's squash team improved to 4-1 this weekend with a 9-0 thrashing of the Cornell Big Red in Ithaca, New York this past Saturday. As in their last three matches, the Big Green humiliated their opponents in little time, recording their third team shutout of the season. Laurie Sykes '99 started off the afternoon in the number one spot in true form. Co-Captain Heather Duckworth '98 followed suit as she defeated her opponent in under thirty minutes.
