Womens basketball shoots for sixth straight victory Saturday

By Camille Powell | January 14, 1994

Tomorrows game means a lot for the womens basketball team. The Big Green look to break the .500 mark for the first time this season and put their untarnished Ivy League record - and their five-game winning streak - on the line. Coach Chris Wielgus goes for her 150th career win. And, oh yeah, they play Harvard. "Whenever you play Harvard, its special," Wielgus said. The Crimson have been a difficult team to figure out this season.

UVM shaves men's hoops, 87-82

By Brad Parks | January 12, 1994

For a few brief, tantalizing moments in last night's 87-82 loss to the University of Vermont, the men's basketball team showed the world on the floor of Leede Arena a few glimpses of the future. Sea Lonergan '97 scored 20 and was perfect in three tries from three-point land.

Women's basketball wins fifth straight

By Camille Powell | January 12, 1994

Monday night's 76-69 win over Boston University looked like deja vu all over again for the Big Green women's basketball players, and they're beginning to like the feeling. The team's fifth straight win was another come-from-behind blindsiding of a team that didn't know what hit it until the final buzzer sounded. Dartmouth scored the game's final 11 points to erase a four-point deficit with the help of eight points from Ilsa Webeck '94, who finished with 20 points and 11 rebounds for her third consecutive double-double. But the real catalyst in the game was, once again, a dynamic freshmen class that has ridden a wave of confidence all the way to installing Dartmouth as the Ivy League's hottest team. The wave began back in November when Jen Pariseau hit a three-pointer the first three times she touched the ball against Vermont.

Women's hockey splits weekend games

By Amy Henry | January 11, 1994

The women's hockey team suffered a disturbing fall from the high of having beaten the country's number one team, losing to key Eastern College Athletic Conference rival Princeton 2-1 Saturday. The Big Green recovered on Sunday with an easy 8-1 trampling of Yale to push their record to 5-4-1 overall. Still, the loss to Princeton was a considerable setback in the team's bid to defend its Ivy League title. The game was a battle to the final moments, but those final moments belonged to the Tigers, who banged the game-winning goal into the net in the final minute of play to beat Dartmouth for the first time in two years. Malaika Little '97 scored Dartmouth's lone goal midway through the second period. "I think we let down a little at the end," Coach George Crowe said.

Men's hockey splits

By Brad Parks | January 10, 1994

As he watched Princeton fourth-line winger Ethan Early burn Dartmouth defenseman Mike Loga '93 for a goal that put the Tigers ahead 4-1, Princeton's Assistant Sports Information Director Mike Jackman grinned and said, "Gotta love those tennis balls." Just about anyone in orange and black would have to concur.

Jay Fiedler '94 leads a star-studded - or as star-studded as the Ivy League gets - contingent of senior first and second team All-Ivy selections at the fourth annual Epson Ivy Bowl this weekend in Tokyo, Japan. Other Big Green football players who are Orient-bound include safeties Jason Fell '94 and Jim McGeehan '94, wide receiver John Hyland '94, offensive tackle Andy McDonald '94, linebacker George Neos '94 and cheerleader Melissa Nguyen '94. The Ivy gridders have not lost the Epson Bowl in the three previous meetings of East versus West, outscoring the apparently out-gunned Japanese team a combined 139-13. The Bowl, which pits the top seniors in the Ivy League against Japan's best college and university players, will be on Saturday in the Tokyo Bowl (tickets are still available). From there, Fiedler heads to Palo Alto, California for the East/West Shrine Game and then to Mobile, Alabama for the Senior Bowl.

With new coach, men's swimming looks to improve

By Tuni Bergey | January 4, 1994

The men's swim team has a goal for this season-to surpass last year's performance. Actually, it doesn't have much of a choice. Coming off a winless record last winter, culminating in a last place finish at the Eastern Intercollegiate Swimming League Championships, the team has already exceeded its win output from last year with a 145-128 victory over the University of New Hampshire Nov.

Big Green garner Ivy League honors

By Brad Parks | November 23, 1993

When the Dartmouth football team began its season two months ago at Pennsylvania's Franklin Field, the 1993 campaign had been all but mapped out. Jay Fiedler '94 would plaster his name in every available slot in the Dartmouth record books.

Big Green save the best for last; Dartmouth comes from behind against Princeton, but Penn does the same with Cornell for league title

By Brad Parks | November 22, 1993

In an encore that befit the brilliance he displayed so frequently throughout his college career, Jay Fiedler '94 pushed the Dartmouth football team beyond ridiculous to utter lunacy one final time. Just when it seemed Mr. Wunderwing had finally run out of miracles, he came up with the most improbable resurrection of a ludicrous season as he threw for two touchdowns and rushed for one more in the final 8 minutes, 34 seconds of Saturday's battle for second place with Princeton to lead Dartmouth from a 14-point deficit to a 28-22 stunning of the Tigers. The final clash of the Ivy League's two once-in-a-decade superstars -- Fiedler and Princeton running back Keith Elias --netted a game worthy of all its considerable billing. But in the end The Gunner bested The Runner for the third straight year as Fiedler came up with all the answers while Elias, for all his shredding of Dartmouth's limp-along defensive line, could only stare with the same incredulous amazement as the other 9,120 spectators at a magnificent manifestation of one individual's will to win and the efforts of an entire team to equal that intensity. To be sure, Elias owned the first three quarters of the game, but as he has proven all year, Fiedler only needs one quarter to win a football game.

Men's hockey splits games

By Colin Grey | November 22, 1993

The Big Green men's hockey team crushed the Catamounts in front of a 3,914-spectator home crowd on Saturday night, dealing a huge 11-4 defeat to University of Vermont. Scott Fraser '94 scored three goals for a hat trick and goalie Ben Heller '97 made 26 stops in his first Eastern College Athletic Conference showing as the Big Green avenged their 7-3 loss at UVM on Friday night. The Big Green, 2-3 overall and 1-3 in the ECAC, capitalized on four of seven power play opportunities, making the most of UVM's mistakes. "It was great to beat them, because they embarrassed us in their barn Friday night.
