Women's soccer wins two, stay atop Ivies

By Jonathan A. Lee | October 28, 1996

The women's soccer team had some fun this weekend. And why not? The Big Green were on top of their game; they had their opponents in their back pockets the whole time; and it was just a gorgeous two days to be kicking the ball around. On Saturday, the Big Green cruised past a sputtering Cornell squad with a 4-1 victory over the basement-bound Big Red. The lopsided score was predictable right from the start as the Big Green jumped to an early two-goal lead in the first 17 minutes of play. With 14 minutes down, senior forward Melissa McBean drove the ball down the middle and fed it to Christina Hallenbeck '97 in the box.

Women's volleyball extends streak to nine

By Justin Evans | October 28, 1996

It was a bittersweet weekend for the Dartmouth women's volleyball team. The team had the pleasure of beating Holy Cross on Sunday, 15-5, 15-7, 15-7, but the match also marked the last home performance for senior co-Captains Janene Ashford and Carmen Schmitt. "This was a great way to end," Coach Ann Marie Larese said. Ashford and Schmitt are the only players to have seen the program's evolution from club to varsity status that has occurred over the past three years. "We have made huge strides individually and as a program these past three years," Ashford said. The win extended the Big Green's (16-6) win streak to a school record nine games and leaves them one win shy of last year's record total.

Johnsons lead long legacy of Big Green golf success

By Sarah Hood | October 24, 1996

During the summer of 1976 at the Hanover Country Club two people who were to become a pair of the most highly respected collegiate golf coaches in the United States met for the first time. Bill and Izzy Johnson did not know each other before the National Golf Foundation Teaching Seminar held in Hanover that year, but when it was over the two had forged the beginning of a partnership and marriage that is now over two decades old. Bill Johnson is now in the middle of his 29th season at the helm of the men's golf program at Dartmouth, and Izzy is in her 10th season as the coach of the women's team.
