So far this year, the women's soccer team has been taking a ride a bumpy roller coaster, highlighted by impressive wins over top national teams but then plagued by subpar performances which have resulted in disappointing losses. Yesterday was one of those losses for the Big Green.

The Dartmouth football team, fully recovered from last week's heartbreaker against Cornell, looks to put all the pieces together this Saturday against Lafayette [1-2-1] at Memorial Field at 1:30 p.m. Now three games into the season, Dartmouth [1-2] has yet to fire on all cylinders.

Men's rowing starts fall season

|

When the Dartmouth men's heavyweight crew team puts its boats in the water this weekend at the Head of the Connecticut, the Big Green will not merely be embarking on their first race of the fall season, but will also be embarking on a yearlong quest for the national title. With an experienced team, that has seven out of eight members from last year's top boat returning, this year's men's heavyweight crew clearly has its eyes set on winning a championship. Although expectations are high, Captain Tom Gilmore '98 pointed out that the team will be aiming to progress steadily throughout the fall and get stronger as the year progresses. Gilmore made it clear that early season race results are not necessarily as crucial as the practical experience they provide.

After shutting out the University of New Hampshire 1-0 last night, the men's soccer team finds itself on a two game win streak following an 0-6 start to the season. The Big Green must now prepare to face nationally ranked Brown on Sunday in a clash of Ivy League co-leaders. Yesterday, the game's only goal came as a result of a poorly played ball by the New Hampshire goalkeeper.

Alison McKinley '99, a starting outside hitter on the women's volleyball team, has proven to be an integral part of the Big Green squad earning her this week's Athlete of the Week Award. McKinley, who was voted Ivy League Player of the Week, led Dartmouth with 28 kills and 26 digs in the Big Green's upset over Bucknell last weekend. "She's a really intense player," teammate Felicity Kolp '99 said.

Water polo struggles in weekend tourney

|

Last week, the Dartmouth Water Polo Club dropped to seventh in the nation despite a perfect record by its A team, and the Big Green were looking to prove they deserved a higher ranking this past weekend at home in the Dartmouth Invitational. After last week's EWPA tournament where the Big Green defeated teams to the tune of 31-2 and 31-1, the team looked poised to rise in the national rankings.

Golf overcomes difficult course

|

When collegiate golfers talk about the difficulty of playing Yale's formidable course, they describe it as daunting, unbelievably hard or extremely difficult. This past weekend the Big Green women found out that their peers weren't kidding around as they earned a hard-fought sixth place finish at the Yale Fall Invitational in New Haven Connecticut. The first hole is played over something that could almost be described as a quarry.

Tennis shows depth, wins double header

Soccer loses first League game

|

The women's soccer team fell victim to another Dartmouth casualty Friday when it lost a disappointing 2-1 game to Yale in New Haven. The women, now 4-2-1, will most likely drop out of national rankings as a result of the loss, but more importantly the Big Green have put themselves in a difficult position in the Ivy League. Dartmouth, now 1-1 in the League, will have to win the remaining Ivy games if the Big Green hopes to even share a part of this year's title. But the Big Green do not plan to dwell on the past, nor do they want to look to far ahead in the future.

Men's soccer wins first game of season

|

A 2-1 victory over rival Yale gave the men's soccer team its first win of the season in their Ivy League opener Saturday night at Yale. Forward Hunter Paschall's '96 two goals gave the Big Green all they needed as they improved their record to 1-6 on the year, 1-0 in League play. After a scoreless first half, Paschall scored his first goal of the game as he shook loose from his defender at midfield and crossed the field, reversed his direction 18 yards from the goal and beat Yale goalie Adam Sullins. Paschall extended the Big Green's lead five minutes later on a penalty kick given to Dartmouth when a Yale defender knocked a Big Green shot away with his hands, preventing a sure goal.

Cornell tops Big Green

|

For the Dartmouth football team this weekend, there could be few more excruciating ways to let a win slip through one's fingers. The Big Green (1-2) fell to Cornell (2-1) 24-19 in a hard-fought, heart-wrenching home opener, as 8,030 exasperated fans at Memorial Field arduously watched on. "It's very disappointing because I thought our team played very hard," Dartmouth's Coach John Lyons said after the grudge match. "We had a chance to win the ball game, and we just couldn't capitalize.
