Men's hockey splits

By Colin Grey | February 21, 1994

This weekend Big Green hockey players reached deep down into their collective pockets and pulled out one word: character. The battered team showed character by rebounding from a heartbreaking 5-4 overtime loss to Harvard University Friday evening to defeat Brown University by the same margin Saturday. The team showed character by doing something which it has not been able to do all season: prove it can play 60 solid minutes of hockey two nights in a row. "I was really proud of how we played," said Dion Del Monte '95, who had his best weekend of the year.

By Mike Mathis | February 18, 1994

Things are looking up for the men's volleyball team. The Big Green picked up their first win at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Tuesday and played their most exciting game of the season against Harvard University Friday in front of an enthusiastic home crowd. Jeremy Longinotti '96 was instrumental in the come-from-behind 3-0 victory over MIT. "He helped spark the team with some key hits late in the game," Co-captain Doug Scott '94 said. Other young players have pitched in impressive performances to the Big Green effort. "Rick Fasani '96 has been the most consistent player for the whole season," Co-captain Alex Szidon '94 said.

Track places second

By Mike Mathis | February 17, 1994

Competing in front of a home crowd at Leverone Field House, the Big Green women's and men's track teams placed second to Brown University in a four-way meet last weekend. The University of Maine and Brandeis University rounded out the field of four, but the real race for first was between the two Ivy League schools. Brown head coach Bob Raffenberg said he believed the difference between the two women's teams was in their relative strengths. "Our team is strong in the hurdles and sprints," Raffenberg said, "while Dartmouth excels in the distance events and the throws." The Big Green did, in fact, perform well in these events. Consistent standouts Kristin Cobb '95 and Maribel Sanchez '96 turned in outstanding performances in the 73-57 loss.

Women dominate league

By Camille Powell | February 14, 1994

And the wins just keep on coming. The women's basketball team rocked and rolled its way to two more victories this past weekend, beating Columbia University, 62-40, on Friday night and Cornell Universitybest, 63-47, the following evening. Against Columbia and Cornell Dartmouth proved to be just like the title of the 4 Non Blondes' recent album - "Bigger, Better, Faster, More." Neither team had a player who could counter Ilsa Webeck '94's size or Betsy Gilmore '94's speed. The Big Green was more poised on offense and more aggressive on defense than their opponents - and it showed on the scoreboard, with Dartmouth handily overmatching its league counterparts. The wins raised the Big Green's overall record to 11-8 and kept them atop the Ivy League with a 6-1 record. The Ivy title is "ours to lose," Coach Chris Wielgus said.

Swimmers seek 8th win

By Amy Henry | February 11, 1994

The women's swim team will compete against the Yale Bulldogs this Saturday, coming off another exciting victory against Army. The Big Green brought their winning streak to six, and improved their overall record to 7-3, the best record since the 1978-79 season. Former Olympian Coach Betsy Mitchell called Yale a "perennial powerhouse" in the Ivy League, but she said she is confident the Dartmouth women will give them a tough battle. "The meet will be a hard last challenge for the squad going to Easterns," Mitchell said. Mitchell pointed out that Yale is on the same level as Cornell, whom the Big Green unexpectedly defeated in early January. Swimmers who might turn in strong performances this weekend include Deb Whitney '96 and co-captain Cory Murphy '95, both exceptional swimmers in multiple events. This will be the last home meet for Co-Captain Lisa Cloitre '94. "This could be a really grand finale for Lisa," Mitchell said. "This season has been a huge stepping stone for the Dartmouth women," Cloitre said.

By Amy Henry | February 11, 1994

The Dartmouth swimmers, who surrendered a tough loss to the Army Cadets last weekend, will fight another battle this weekend when they face the powerhouse Yale Bulldogs.

Some of this weekend's highlights could come from Bob Halk '94 in the backstroke, Jason Stern '94 in the butterfly, or Ben Lanon '96 in the breaststroke. Wilson said this year has been a rebuilding year for the Big Green.
