Field hockey upsets New Hampshire

By Brad Parks | October 8, 1993

One of the innate beauties of team sports is that momentum can change so quickly. A week ago, the field hockey team was squirming, trying to figure out how it could eke out so much as a single win after losing five consecutive games by a single goal. How things have changed. On Wednesday, just a few days after snapping that losing streak with a 2-0 win over Yale, the Big Green (3-5 overall, 1-1 Ivy League) won their biggest game of the season with a stunning 2-1 upset of the University of New Hampshire, the nation's 17th-ranked team. "We didn't play so differently from the way we were playing when we lost the last few games," Coach Julie Dayton said.

By Geoff Oltmans | October 8, 1993

The men's soccer team defeated 20th-ranked UNH Wednesday night, 1-0, in a double-overtime thriller in front of 3,500 fans in Amherst, N.H. Forty-five seconds into the second overtime, George O'Brien '95 beat Wildcat goalie Steve Baccari with a header off a far-post corner kick from Co-Captain Blaine LeGere '95. "We were pounding on the door all day, but we just couldn't finish," LeGere said.

Football faces UNH

By Brad Parks | October 8, 1993

In a season when the Dartmouth football team has had a tough enough time picking on teams its own size, the University of New Hampshire represents a somewhat daunting challenge. The Wildcats are bigger, stronger, faster -- superlatives that generally confer a hefty advantage in any sports, let alone football. But no one is counting Dartmouth out of Saturday's game, which kicks off at 1:30 p.m.

By Brad Parks | October 7, 1993

We watched him glide across our television screens like he was on wires, a gangly rookie from North Carolina with a million dollar smile and a pull-up jumper that was unstoppable.

By Richard Petty | October 7, 1993

After an 0-7 start, the women's volleyball team heads into official Ivy League competition this weekend in what could be its most difficult road trip of the season. The women will play Princeton and the University of Pennsylvania, two of the stronger teams in the league. Last year, the team finished 10-12 overall with a 1-8 Ivy League record that placed them seventh in the Ancient Eight for the second straight year.

Women's rugby club aims for victories

By Nicolette Van Der Lee | October 6, 1993

As the leaves change colors and fall around the green fields of Sachem, the Dartmouth women's rugby club practices their rucks, mauls, scrums, line outs, and quick passing in preparation for the fall of their New England competitors. The home game against the University of Vermont two weeks ago began the season with a roar as Nicole Carrier '94 took off after a bold series of grub kicks by Keirsten Lawton '94 for a diving try.

Women's cross country ranked 13th in nation

By Kenneth Y. Lee | September 30, 1993

Living up to their high pre-season national ranking, the women's cross country team continues to build upon last year's successes behind the strong nucleus of Meegan Larsen '95, Kristin Cobb '95 and Maribel Sanchez '96 and are now ranked as the country's 13th best, a position shared with rival Cornell. Coach Ellen O'Neil described the team as "more excited than nervous" about their national standing. She noted that an Eastern College Athletic Conference Championship and qualifying for the NCAAs remain the team's ultimate goals this year, as well as improving on last year's fifth place finish at the Heptagonal Championship. "If we keep running as we have been, and improving as we have with each race, I think we have a very good chance," Captain Tori Knox '94 said.
