Crews race with success

By Richard Petty | November 11, 1993

Despite being split between the Yale Invitational and the Princeton Chase this past weekend, Dartmouth crews were bound by a common strand -- success. The Big Green varsity men's lightweight eight, which raced at Princeton, finished fourth in 13 minutes, 53.4 seconds.

Penn football, Big Green women's soccer are weekend focus; Dartmouth must wait for Quaker loss to fulfill hopes for fourth consecutive Ivy League title

By Scott Anthony | November 10, 1993

Stop me if you've heard this one before. The Dartmouth football team entered the fourth quarter trailing (stop!) Columbia by four points before turning on the turbo boosters and blowing past the unusually roaring Lions. Jay and the Miracles have now gone to the fourth quarter with a lead just twice -- against Yale and Bucknell -- but are still riding a four-game winning streak to stretch their record to 5-3 overall, 4-1 in the Ivy League. What a fun, freaky team.

Men's tennis finishes fall season at Rolex Invitational

By Amy Hatch | November 10, 1993

Despite a slow start at the beginning of the season, the Big Green men's tennis team ended with a strong performance last weekend at the Rolex Tournament in Princeton, N.J. "As a team we struggled for a lot of the fall, but at Rolex the guys in the main draw really played well," Captain Dan Coakley '94 said. Entering the tournament seeded third, Coakley was especially pleased with his second place finish, which qualified him for the National Indoors, which will be held Feb, 3-6 in Dallas, Texas. Jim Rich '96 and Holden Spaht '96 also competed at the Rolex and performed well, making it to the round of 16 players, according to Coach Chuck Kinyon. "Overall we had a great weekend," Kinyon said.

Football wrap-up

By Scott Anthony | November 9, 1993

While Dartmouth was pummeling Columbia in New York, its hopes for a fourth consecutive title may have ended about 70 miles south on Franklin Field. After Dartmouth's season-opening 10-6 loss to the University of Pennsylvania, the Big Green knew they would need someone to knock off the Quakers to have a chance to even tie for the title. And if there was any team that was going to do it, it would be the Princeton Tigers. Coming into Saturday's Penn Homecoming game in Philadelphia, both Penn and Princeton sported identical 7-0 overall and 4-0 Ivy League records. But Princeton completely dominated the Quakers, rolling up 451 total yards and coasting to a 30-14 victory over the Tigers in front of more than 35,000 fans in Philadelphia. After the game, fans who had chanted "Ivy Champs" toward the end of the game, stormed the field, ripped down the goal posts and tossed them in a nearby river. Now the Big Green must beat Brown and Princeton, and pray for either Harvard or Cornell to upset the seemingly invincible Quakers. The best bet is for a Crimson victory this weekend in Cambridge, Mass.

Football coach injured at Columbia

By Alexander R. Edlich | November 9, 1993

NEW YORK, Nov. 6 -- At the tail-end of a play during the football game here, a Columbia player barreled into Big Green assistant coach Drew Tallman on the sidelines, bruising the cartilage between his ribs. Tallman, a volunteer tight end coach, was taken to St.

Women's soccer clinches Ivy Title

By Camille Powell | November 8, 1993

NEW YORK, Nov. 6 -- You could tell what kind of afternoon it was going to be from the very beginning. On the opening kickoff, Brittanny Boulanger '95 stripped the ball from a Columbia player, dribbled through an entire half of the field and won a corner kick for the Big Green. Although Dartmouth didn't score directly off Boulanger's run, it set the tone for the rest of the game. Call it total Dartmouth domination. The Big Green simply overwhelmed Columbia, out-shooting the Lions, 28-2, and defeating them, 2-0. The victory raised Dartmouth's overall record to 12-2-1.

Erratic Big Green push past Columbia; Penn victory over Princeton could hurt Dartmouth drive for fourth consecutive Ivy Title

By Brad Parks | November 8, 1993

NEW YORK, Nov. 6 -- Both Dartmouth and Columbia thoroughly dominated two quarters of today's match-up between one of the Ivy League's Prince Charmings and the foulest of the league's ugly step sisters. That Dartmouth, which came away with a 42-25 victory, happened to dominate the second and the fourth quarter better than Columbia did the first and the third did little to ease a very frog-like performance by the aptly-monikered Big Green. Despite the win, Dartmouth's title hopes suffered a severe set-back in Philadelphia.

Football at Columbia

By Brad Parks | November 5, 1993

It's fairly rare that you head to a football game hoping it turns into a 41-7 blowout. But after two weeks in which the Dartmouth football team effectively doubled the blood pressure of anyone who dared to enter the heart-pounding confines of Memorial Field, that's just what anyone who is making the trip down to New York City for the Big Green's match-up with the Columbia Lions is hoping for -- a boring, reach-for-the-No-Doz thrashing. Even the Miracle Man himself, Jay Fiedler '94, admitted at the end of last week's 39-34 come-from-17-points-down clipping of Harvard that, "We have to stop doing this to ourselves." Dartmouth (4-3 overall, 3-1 Ivy League) certainly couldn't have a more apt candidate for a trouncing.

Field hockey ends successful season

By Brad Parks | November 3, 1993

A relatively short amount of time has passed since first-year coach Julie Dayton arrived in Hanover to try and salvage something -- anything -- positive out of the 1993 field hockey season. There were some who had all but written off the season before it even began.

Field hockey ends successful season

By Nicolette Van Der Lee | November 3, 1993

Two weeks ago the Dartmouth women's rugby club travelled to the University of Massachuseets in Amherst, Mass., to combat other New England teams for the Mayor's Cup in the Beantown Tournament. After two days of play, the club came home with the second place trophy after losing in the finals against the University of Connecticut. Aggressive rugby brought the team to the finals.

Penn, Princeton set for battle; Both teams undefeated, tied for first in the Ivy League

By Brad Parks | November 2, 1993

After weeks of picking up momentum for the showdown of the year in Ivy League football, Penn and Princeton, both 7-0 overall, 4-0 Ivy League, finally set their collision course in stone this weekend. It's been 25 years since two undefeated Ivy League teams played each other this late in the season, and it looks like Saturday's rumble in Philadelphia will be worth the wait. Penn has the league's highest scoring offense.

Big Green come from behind to win again

By Brad Parks | November 1, 1993

More than 11,000 people piled into Memorial Stadium for Dartmouth's Homecoming showdown against the Harvard Crimson and by the time it was over, the vast majority of them had to scoop their jaws off the cold concrete bleachers. With the Ivy League title riding on every snap, the Big Green and their Miracle Working quarteback, Jay Fiedler '94, played with the Granite of New Hampshire in their muscles and their nerve endings. The hardest aspect of analyzing the football team's utterly ridiculous 39-34 win over Harvard on Saturday is trying to find some kind of pecking order in the amazing chain of events which carried Dartmouth from a 17-point deficit late in the third quarter to one of the greatest comebacks in program history. There was Fiedler's 28-yard completion to Shearer on fourth-and-10 with less than two minutes to play and Dartmouth down, 28-25.

Women's soccer wins; Dartmouth will at least share Ivy Title

By Camille Powell | November 1, 1993

A lone Harvard voice could occasionally be heard in the bleachers at Chase Field on Saturday. But every time he opened his mouth to root for his team, his cheer was drowned out by choruses of "Go Dartmouth!" How appropriate. Just as the Harvard cheers were drowned out by those from Dartmouth, the Harvard women's soccer team was swallowed up by the Big Green. The steady, strong Dartmouth defense thwarted every Harvard attack.
