Brown tops men's lax

|

Ghosts from seasons past haunted the men's lacrosse team this Saturday in Providence. The 19th-ranked Big Green lost 10-9 to seventh-ranked Brown in a manner that conjured up memories from last season. Fourth-quarter comebacks by opponents resulted in tough one-goal losses for the Big Green several times last year, and it happened again this weekend. Dartmouth held a 7-5 advantage over the Bears heading into the fourth quarter, only to have Brown explode for five goals in the final 15 minutes.

QB Singleton to transfer here

|

Jerry Singleton will transfer from Colorado State University next fall with a good chance to be the starting quarterback now that the historic career of Jay Fielder '94 is over. While Coach John Lyons would not say that Singleton will get the starting nod, he did say that "we think he's a pretty good player" and that "we think he has the possibility of being a real good one." Singleton, who is 6-foot-1 and 197 pounds, will be a junior, and will be able to play immediately, Lyons said. Lyons has not seen Singleton play live, but said he was very impressed by films he saw of Singleton playing junior college football.
