They call Philadelphia “The City of Brotherly Love.” So it came as no surprise that when Jason Bash ‘06 trotted out onto the fabled Franklin Field against the University of Pennsylvania Quakers (2-1, 1-0 Ivy) on Saturday, some of the Penn fans gave him a standing ovation.

The MLB playoffs are upon us, and what better way is there to greet the fall classic than with some prophetic predictions? At midseason I wrote a column forecasting award-winners and playoff participants. Awards aside, as the last day of the regular season begins, I find myself three for four in playoff teams for each league. More »
Co-captain Whitney Waugh ‘08 and Stef Miller ‘09 scored nearly 30 seconds apart in the first half and the Big Green defense held off two corners in the waning moments of the second half to lead the Dartmouth field hockey team over the University of Pennsylvania, 2-1, Saturday afternoon at Scully-Fahey Field in Hanover.
