Crew teams place at Henleys

By Amy Hatch | August 16, 1995

Although disappointed by not meeting early expectations of placing high in several events, the men's and women's crew teams returned home Sunday night from the Canadian Henleys relatively pleased with their results in one of the largest regattas in North America. The Henleys, known for its intense competition, features the top rowers in Canada and the United States as well as competitive international crew teams. Being one of the top collegiate crew teams though, the Big Green squads were not intimidated with the level of competition and entered each race intending to place. "When you are in a regatta like this you really can't expect to win," lightweight Coach Dick Grossman said.

Frisbee club in pursuit of 'ultimate' adventure

By Mary Ellen Moore | August 4, 1995

This summer the men's and women's ultimate frisbee teams have combined forces to form one coed team. The teams are usually composed of 15 women and 30 men, but in the summer 20, five of whom are women compete. Summer co-captain Chris Carbone '97 said ultimate frisbee practice is not too different in the summer, although some hot afternoon he plans to take the teamto the river to play canoe disc instead of their regular method of practicing. Ultimate frisbee is a club sport at Dartmouth, which means the teams compete in intercollegiate tournaments, but the College gives them little money, according to co-captain Amy Stein '97. "Our biggest expense is tournament fees, which are usually about $50-$100 each and the College covers that," she said. But in order to cover other costs, such as transportation, the teams have their own fundraising activities.

By Abby Klingbeil | July 27, 1995

If one were to describe Sally Annis' relaxed philosophy on life, it might be the same as Ben and Jerry's-- "If it's not fun, why do it?" Annis' decisions to play basketball, to go to Dartmouth and even to be an engineering major were based on whether or not she would have fun.

Soccer team prepares for fall

By Amy Hatch | July 21, 1995

Just because over half the women's soccer team is off campus this summer, that doesn't mean playing doesn't continue for the Big Green women who are preparing for the upcoming fall season. The eight varsity sophomores who are in Hanover for the summer not only engage in running workouts four days a week and weight training three days a week, but also meet three days a week at Sachem fields to play pick-up games. "It's pretty much intended for us to get out there and get our feet on the ball," Cindy Goodwin '97 said.

Basketball player Lonergan '97 jumps to new level

By Amy Hatch | July 19, 1995

If basketball player Sea (pronounced 'Shay') Lonergan '97 had been told that after two years at Dartmouth he would establish himself as the top preseason pick for the top Ivy League player, he most likely would have laughed. Lonergan is far from laughing at that idea now as he sits poised to lead the Big Green this winter on a journey they hope will end in an Ivy League Championship. "It's been like a dream," Lonergan said.

New cross country coach named

By Amy Hatch | July 17, 1995

The recent naming of Ellen O'Neil '87, assistant coach forwomen's cross country and track and field, to the position of varsity head coach for women's cross country will have little effect on the Big Green running program. O'Neil, who has been coaching at Dartmouth for three years, will continue performing many of her former tasks, except now she will have a new title. "Basically Ellen has been the cross country coach for the past three years," said women's track and field coach Sandra Ford-Centonze.

Tennis MVP Fuller '97 gains confidence in his game

By Amy Hatch | July 7, 1995

Matt Fuller '97, the Big Green tennis team's most valuable player who helped lead the squad into the NCAA regional playoffs, is not flashy, but that's because he doesn't have to be. Fuller spent much of this season wearing his opponents down with his slow and deliberate style of playing, rather than trying to outgun them. "He is a very steady player and he is relentless with a match," Men's Tennis Coach Chuck Kinyon said.
