Ski team competes at Bates

|

The Dartmouth men's and women's ski team kicked off their season last weekend with a third place finish at the Bates Winter Carnival. Dartmouth finished with 527 points, but the Big Green were well off the pace of the top two finishers, the University of Vermont and the University of New Hampshire, which finished with 585 and 584 points respectively. The men's nordic team began the weekend Friday, by finishing a disappointing fifth place in the three by five kilometer skating relays. The women did not fair much better in their race, as they also earned a fifth place finish. "The nordic teams really had a rough weekend because of the weather and all of the injuries," Andy Martin'96 said. The alpine teams did considerably better on Saturday and actually took home two individual titles. Jen Collins '99 began her collegiate career in style with a victory in the women's slalom and a time of 88.34 seconds.

Tracksters qualify

|

The men's and women's track teams were back in action last weekend as the men traveled to Boston University to compete in the championship round of the New England Cup and the women competed at Brown in the finals of the Challenge Cup. The Big Green men finished the meet in third place overall behind powerful University of Connecticut and Heptagonal rival Brown University. In the 3,000 meter, co-Captain Jack Dwyer '96 turned in a fine individual effort, placing second with a good enough time to qualify for the IC4A Championship Meet in March.

Volleyball improves to 2-0 on the season

|

The men's volleyball team had its second match of the season this past Saturday at Leede Arena against the Northeastern Huskies, winning 3-1 to rise to 2-0 on the season. The Big Green got off to a rough start falling behind 10-4 to a Northeastern team that was "intense, very ready to play," according to team co-Captain Jeremy Longinotti '96. Making an adjustment, Longinotti, who helps coach the team since volleyball is a club sport, brought Rick Fasani '96 in to the setter position.

Athlete of the Week

Sea Lonergan '97 surpassed the 1,000 point mark in his Big Green career last Saturday earning him this week's Athlete of the Week award. Lonergan, all Ivy Rookie of the Year as a freshman and a unanimous All-Ivy selection last year, is the team's leading scorer with 18.7 points per game.

Hockey dominates

|

It is a goal that Northeastern goalie Shannon Meyers will not forget for a while. A goal that should not have tarnished Northeastern's then-perfect ECAC record, 6-0. But it did. The goal, by Amy Coelho '97, came late in the second period, and could not even be called a shot. Coelho, whose team was tied with the Huskies at one, simply wanted to dump the puck into Northeastern's end to give her team time to switch lines. Except for Meyers, no one was in Northeastern's half of the ice.
