Dartmouth, Brown shine in UK

A combined team of Dartmouth and Brown track and field stars snagged a decisive 21-16 victory over athletes from Oxford and Cambridge last week in Cambridge, England at the Americas Match. The meet, which concluded June 28th, is an outgrowth of a tradition that began in the 1890s between Harvard/Yale and Oxford/Cambridge and was soon picked up on by other members of the Ivy league. Dartmouth and Brown jumped on the bandwagon in 1985 and have since paired up every four years for the overseas meet. Competitors from Dartmouth were all top-six finishers at May's Heptagonal Championships at UPenn.
