Men's swimming drops another close contest

|

The men's swim team lost another tight meet this weekend to Columbia, dropping its record to 1-7-1, 0-4-1 in the E.I.S.L. The season has been a difficult one for Dartmouth, as the team has lost numerous times in close events. A first place finish is worth five points more than a second place finish, creating a 10 point swing every time Dartmouth loses a close event. Once again, the Big Green came up on the short end of the close events and found themselves with a loss in a hard fought meet. "It is fun being on this year's team because the meets are exciting," Grier Laughlin '96 said.

New Hampshire overpowers Big Green

|

Enthusiasm flagged at Leede Arena last night as Scott Drapeau scored 25 points, leading the New Hampshire Wildcats to an 87-60 shellacking of the Big Green. With Dartmouth center Brian Gilpin '97 out with an ankle injury, suffered 11 minutes into the game, the Wildcats had their way inside. A rotating triumvirate of Dartmouth centers could do little against the 1993-94 North Atlantic Conference Player of the Year. With Gilpin out, the team was ineffective on the boards, getting out-rebounded 52-32.
