Lonergan '97 leads basketball: In three years, Lonergan has excelled on and off the court

By Sarah Hood | May 28, 1996

With a list of achievements almost as long as his 6'6" frame, Sea Lonergan '97 is The Dartmouth's Athlete of the Year. Since his arrival here from Lake Highlands High School in Dallas, Texas, Lonergan has dominated the hardwood in the Ivy League. He was named the Ivy League Rookie of the Year in 1994 and has only improved between then and now. For the past two years he has been a first team All-Ivy pick, and justifiably so, as he has also been the conference's leading scorer both years. In his three years here at Dartmouth, Lonergan has begun to build room for himself in the Big Green's record books as well. Twice named the team's MVP, he became the 19th Dartmouth player to score 1,000 points early this past season.

By Kevin Demoff | May 28, 1996

Most freshmen have a hard enough time adjusting to the rigors of Dartmouth without ever taking on the task of being a two-sport athlete. As always though, there are exceptions, and Weze Shorts '99 has proven this over the fall and spring, most importantly as a starter on the lacrosse team for most of the team's spring campaign.

By Jonathan A. Lee | May 27, 1996

With a name like Hapgood, you've got to be good, right? Well, in the case of Big Green lacrosse star Scott Hapgood '97, he's more than just good, he's great. In his third year donning the green jersey, Hapgood dominated the Dartmouth attack with a remarkable 48 goals in 12 games, making him the nation's top scorer in men's lacrosse this season.

Field Hockey Coach Julie Dayton, Kate Andrews '96, Sally Annis '97 and Sarah Billmeier '99 spoke on their experiences as women in the Dartmouth athletic program. Andrews, co-captain of this past year's women's soccer team, spoke of what athletics does for a woman. "It's a character builder," she said.

By Sarah Hood | May 20, 1996

On Sunday Manwaring blew away competition in the 1,500 meters, clocking 4:23.00 for the easy win. Luckily for the egos of her competitors, she ran her fastest time on Saturday in the qualifying heats, a blistering 4:18.94. Her time breaks her own school record, but more importantly is good enough to automatically qualify her for the NCAA Championships and the U.S.
