New indoor facility will give teams more practice availability

By Elijah Czysz | May 13, 2019

After a lengthy legal battle that went all the way to the New Hampshire Supreme Court, contractors finally began construction on a new indoor practice facility on campus this past winter. The new facility will provide space to Dartmouth sports teams — varsity and club — that have struggled with cancelled practices, icy New Hampshire winters and a lack of sufficient accommodations at the sole indoor practice facility currently on campus, Leverone Field House.

Baseball closes 15-26 season with series loss to Cornell

By Baily Deeter | May 6, 2019

Per the old adage, baseball is a game of inches, and Dartmouth learned this lesson the hard way in its final week of competition. The Big Green lost three nail-biters, falling to the University of Maine 8-7 on Wednesday and losing to Cornell University 2-1 and 8-6 on Saturday. But the team rebounded to end its season on Sunday, winning 6-1 to give 30-year veteran head coach Bob Whalen his 600th career win.

By Osezele Okoruwa | April 29, 2019

With a national championship win this fall, the Dartmouth women’s rugby team secured its spot as a powerhouse in the sport. However, many forget that there is a men’s team that competes at a high level year-round. The Dartmouth Men’s Rugby Football Club, although not an official varsity sport like the women’s team, has a legacy of success in the Ivy League and across the nation.

Sports Cui-sine: NBA Conference Semifinals Predictions

By Mark Cui | April 29, 2019

Well, RIP to my first round predictions: I picked five of the eight winners and predicted the correct amount of games played (with the correct winner) in just three of the matchups. Despite a few upsets in the first few games, no lower-seeded team won its series. However, the results from the first round have laid the groundwork for an absolutely riveting second round. Here are my previews and predictions for the next round.

Playoff hopes dim for baseball team after losing two to Harvard

By Baily Deeter | April 26, 2019

Arguably the most overused phrase in sports is taking the season one game at a time. But as the baseball team enters its last two weeks of Ivy League play, it is going to need to stick to this cliché in order to have any chance of reaching the Ivy League championship in spite of its current sixth-place standing.
