Big Green beat Harvard

By Mark Woodard | February 15, 1996

Last night against Harvard, the men's volleyball team sprang back after losing the first game, winning three straight games and completing a season sweep of the rival Crimson. At first, the Big Green looked as if they were unready to play, just as they were Saturday against Plymouth State.

Men's volleyball to play Harvard

By Mark Woodard | February 14, 1996

Tonight at 7:00 p.m. in Leede Arena the Dartmouth's Men's Volleyball team will face Harvard in what looks to be a grueling rematch of these two Ivy League powers. When they first met this season in Cambridge, Dartmouth was able to come out quickly and surprise the Crimson with consistent passing and evenly spread attacks.

Athlete of the Week

By The Dartmouth | February 14, 1996

In the Big Green's two wins against Penn and Princeton this past weekend, freshman Bess Tortolani was a key player to come off the bench. With 17 points against Penn and 16 against Princeton, Tortolani, primarily a forward, also racked in a total of 11 rebounds and nine assists. "She came off the bench and did great for us," teammate Sally Annis '97 said.

Big Green split over weekend

By Austin Whitman | February 14, 1996

The men's squash team beat Hobart 7-2 and lost to Franklin and Marshall College 4-5 this past weekend at F&M in Pennsylvania. Coach Chris Brownell said that the match against F&M "went a little better than expected." The team was missing Jon Gabel '98 but still managed to pick up four wins from co-Captain John-Keith Wasson '96, Zach Segal '98, Bill Tarr '98 and Ross Hallock '97.

Vermont wins Dartmouth Winter Carnival

By Brian Fleming | February 13, 1996

The Big Green had to settle for yet another second place finish overall, as poor snow conditions and a powerful University of Vermont nordic team propelled the Catamounts to victory at last weekend's Dartmouth Winter Carnival. The lack of snow in Hanover forced the nordic races to be moved to Stowe, Vt., UVM's home course, and the Catamounts took full advantage of it.

Hockey struggles over weekend

By Jeffrey Beyer | February 12, 1996

The Dartmouth men's hockey team continued to slide this past weekend, dropping two ECAC road games at Cornell and Colgate and in the process slipping into a three-way tie for last place in the conference. The Big Green fell 4-2 to the Cornell Big Red on Friday night and were blasted 8-2 by the Colgate Red Raiders on Saturday night. With the two defeats, the Big Green (3-12-1 ECAC, 4-17-2 overall) are now tied with Union and a suddenly resurgent Princeton for 10th place in the ECAC, with all three teams holding seven points. Following a strong start to the 1996 calendar year, which saw the Big Green vault into ninth place in the conference on the heels of three straight ECAC wins, the team has gone winless since Jan.

Student ticket sales decrease

By Eric Petit | February 8, 1996

After a sold out crowd of 4,400 two weeks ago in support of the struggling men's hockey team, and near-packed houses expected for two crucial men's basketball games this weekend, it is hard to imagine that student attendance at Big Green sports events is on the wane. In fact, it is.

Basketball turnout must become equal

By Justin Evans | February 8, 1996

With student attendance at women's basketball games on the decline, its become apparent that women's basketball is living in the shadow of the men's team. It's unlikely that current students simply aren't interested in women's basketball.

Women runners gain experience

By Sarah Hood | February 7, 1996

Last Saturday, a portion of the women's track team traveled to the University of Rhode Island and finished second in a field of four teams. The women approached the meet looking to work on individual performances rather than to overpower their smaller opponents.
