Field hockey hopes to tame Black Bears

By Amy Hatch | September 28, 1994

Upset after tying with the University of Pennsylvania last Saturday, the women's field hockey team plans to vent its frustration today at home as they take on the always tough University of Maine at 3:30 p.m. Dartmouth, 2-2-1 on the season, is so far disappointed with its record, and the Big Green hopes to gain momentum with a victory today. "I think we're off to a good start, but we're not satisfied with our record at all," Coach Julie Dayton said.

Men's soccer wins big in Ivy League opener

By Geoff Oltmans | September 26, 1994

The men's soccer team won its home and Ivy League opener yesterday in convincing fashion, romping the University of Pennsylvania 5-1 in front of a lively crowd at Chase Field. Four second-half goals propelled the Big Green, who are now 2-0 overall in Coach Fran O'Leary's inaugural season. An evenly played first-half took a turn in Dartmouth's favor in the 37th minute when a cross by Blaine LeGere '95 was inadvertently knocked in the goal by Penn defender Alan Waxman.

Women run up score in shutouts

By Amy Hatch | September 26, 1994

The women's soccer team sent a loud and clear message that the sport can be high scoring as they racked up 16 goals en route to two resounding victories this past weekend. Even without the on-field leadership of Captain Michelle Conroy '95 and the quickness of injured all-American Melissa McBean '97, the Big Green still showed extreme poise and confidence as they boosted their overall record to 4-1 and 1-0 in the Ivy League. In a league match Saturday, Dartmouth outshot the University of Pennsylvania 34-0 on the way to a decisive 8-0 victory.

By Warren Valdmanis | September 23, 1994

The Dartmouth Rugby Football Club opened its 1994 season with an impressive victory, completely dominating Harvard 43-13 in Cambridge, Mass. Harvard was expected to provide a difficult test for the Big Green -- last year, Harvard narrowly defeated Dartmouth to win the New England Premier League. Todd Aaron '96 opened up the scoring by breaking three tackles and diving in for the game's first try.

Women's soccer hopes for 1993 all over again

By Amy Hatch | September 22, 1994

After winning the Ivy League Championship last season and reaching the NCAA tournament, it looks like the women's soccer team has little room for improvement. But the Big Green still hope to put the past behind them and start fresh with the 1994 season. Last year the women's soccer team had a wildly successful season -- finishing 12-3-1 overall and 7-0-0 in the Ivy Leagues.

Big Green fall to Colgate

By Scott Anthony | September 20, 1994

If the Dartmouth football team was trailing by four points with less than five minutes to go and Jay Fiedler '94 was leading the team down the field, it was almost assumed that Dartmouth would end up on the right side of a fourth-quarter comeback. But Fiedler has made the big step up to the National Football League, and two late drives led by new quarterback Ren Riley '96 came up short, as Dartmouth (0-1 overall, 0-0 Ivy League) fell 20-16 to Colgate University in soggy Hamilton, N.Y. The game looked like it was over when, with eight minutes left, Brian White '95 fumbled a punt, giving Colgate the ball on the Dartmouth 12-yard line. But with Colgate driving for a clinching touchdown, Tim Cross '96 came up with a fumble, giving the Big Green the ball on their own seven. Riley then led the team on an efficient 90-plus-yard drive -- a 27-yard completion to David Shearer '95 left the Big Green just two yards away from the go-ahead touchdown. On fourth and goal from the three, Riley started running the option, but slipped on the wet field, giving Colgate the ball back.

Fiedler '94 may survive final cuts

By Scott Anthony | August 23, 1994

Jay Fielder '94 did not play Saturday night, but he still might have moved one step closer to making the Philadelphia Eagles of the National Football League. Fiedler, the Dartmouth varsity quarterback the last three years, is fighting with second-year pro Preston Jones for the Eagle's third-string quarterback spot. Two weeks ago, Fielder completed 9 of 18 passes for 108 yards against the New York Jets, a game that Jones did not play in. Jones was scheduled to play the fourth quarter of the Eagle's Saturday game against the Cincinnati Bengals but did not. Second-string quarterback Bubby Brister played the third and fourth quarters.

Two '96s battle to replace Fiedler

By Scott Anthony | August 19, 1994

When Dartmouth football opens its training camp next week, there will be a shoot-out for the team's starting quarterback spot. All-everything quarterback Jay Fiedler '94 has graduated and now throws footballs for the Philadelphia Eagles of the National Football League. The Dartmouth football team must now begin its search for its next offensive leader, the man who will carry them to another Ivy League crown. Ren Riley '96 will go into camp as the number one quarterback, varsity football coach John Lyons said yesterday. Last season, Riley was the number one back-up to Fiedler, which meant that he did not see much playing time on the field. But Lyons has recruited Jerry Singleton '96, a transfer student from Colorado State University, to come in and challenge Riley for the starting job this season. Lyons said Singleton will start training camp as the number-two quarterback behind Riley, but whoever has the best pre-season will win the job. "We'll go through pre-season and give both of them a lot of work and see what they can do," Lyons said. Unofficial practices Lyons said he got to know Singleton during the recruitment process last year. Singleton has been up in Hanover this summer, working for the College and meeting his new teammates. This summer, Lyons said he has had the opportunity to get to know Singleton better. "He seems to be someone who's very serious about football, and he's working very hard to get himself ready for this year," Lyons said.

Fiedler '94 plays well for NFL Eagles

By Scott Anthony | August 15, 1994

Jay Fiedler '94 turned in a strong performance at quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday night in his continuing effort to play his way into a roster spot on the National Football League team. The Eagles lost the preseason game at home to the New York Jets, 34-24. Fiedler is battling second-year player Preston Jones for the third-string quarterback position. Fiedler, who was signed by the Eagles as a non-drafted free agent in late April, played two quarters against the Jets.
