Much to His Chagrin

By Michael Shagrin, The Dartmouth Senior Staff

May 29 | 12:00 am

Much to my chagrin, the feedback on this column over the nine months has taken aim at my narpiness. I’ve finally taken the hint. Without further adieu, here are some reflections from two members of the Dartmouth community who have actually played sports as part of their Dartmouth experience.

Women’s sailing wins national championship, coed team finishes third

By Brett Drucker, The Dartmouth Senior Staff

May 29 | 12:00 am

Leading from start to finish, the Dartmouth women’s sailing team captured the program’s third ICSA national championship last week in St. Petersburg, Fla, its first championship since 2000. Skipper Dierdre Lambert ’15 was named the Quantum women’s college sailor of the year, and the coed team took to the water later in the week, finishing third out of 18 competitors.

Marriott: lessons from The D

By Vince Marriott, The Dartmouth Senior Staff

May 29 | 12:00 am

I joined the sports section for all the wrong reasons. During orientation, I figured that I needed to sign up for a campus activity because all of my ’shmob friends were doing it. Even though I had been an athlete in high school, varsity sports felt like far too much of a time commitment. I still retained my passion for watching sports, however, and it made sense to me that my campus activity would provide me a means of doing it.

Zhao: four years of Big Green sports

By Dong Zhao, The Dartmouth Senior Staff

May 29 | 12:00 am

Dartmouth sports first entered my life during my senior year of high school. A couple of my friends heading to colleges with powerhouse football programs were talking about their teams, and one of them suggested we look up Dartmouth football. What came after was a year’s worth of verbal abuse as we discovered that the Big Green was 0-10 in the season before I matriculated.

The Dartmouth men’s and women’s track and field teams competed at the NCAA East Regionals in Greensboro, N.C., at A&T’s Irwin Belk Track in a weekend full of events, punctuated by Abbey D’Agostino ’14 qualifying for nationals in the 5,000-meter.

Vann Island

The other day I went to the dentist. I hate the dentist, so you can add that to the list of things that I hate from my last column of the winter. When I was leaving to pay, the lady who was checking me out got into some small talk with me, which I also hate, and she asked, “So, what did you go to college for?”

Sailors prepare for nationals

May 24 | 12:00 am

The sailing season is drawing to a close over the next week, with women’s and coed national championships coming up. Dartmouth is well-represented in both events, with a Big Green team racing at the Gill Coed championship in St. Petersburg, Fla., next weekend and a women’s team competing in the Sperry Top-Sider finals today. The Big Green women are currently leading the national championships over second-place Boston College by 39 points with one day remaining of competition.

Much to his Chagrin

May 24 | 12:00 am

Much to my chagrin, the Cleveland Cavaliers have once again leapfrogged their way to the NBA draft’s first pick. For the second time in three years, the ping pong balls bounced in the Cavaliers’ direction, overcoming significant odds — 2.8 percent in 2011 and 15.6 percent in 2013 — to snatch the draft’s pole position. How did this happen? Let’s start from the beginning.

Football team announces 35 recruits in the Class of 2017

By Noah Reichblum, The Dartmouth Staff

May 23 | 12:00 am

For most Ivy League football teams, there are two ways to rebuild a program: hire new coaches and aggressively recruit. Head coach Buddy Teevens ’79, an Ivy champion as both a player and coach for the Big Green, retook the reins of a historically successful program in 2005. Despite five losing seasons, the team finally rebounded, posting a 6-4 record last year and tying for third in the Ivy League. Dartmouth football took another step in the right direction last Friday by announcing their 2017 recruitment class.

By Jake Bayer, The Dartmouth Staff

May 22 | 12:00 am

The Dartmouth baseball and softball teams both netted postseason awards for impressive individual performances. Both teams lost in Ivy League championship series in the first weekend of May, with the softball team (26-20, 15-5 Ivy) falling 2-1 to the University of Pennsylvania and the baseball team (32-9, 15-5 Ivy) losing 2-0 to Columbia University.

Kellen Winslow discusses health among college students

By Jackson Dean, The Dartmouth Staff

May 22 | 12:00 am

Speaking about the importance of health to an audience of 40 people in Dartmouth Hall yesterday, Hall of Fame tight end Kellen Winslow used his experiences as a profesional football player to emphasize that college students should focus on exercise and wellness as they prepare to enter the professional world. Winslow travels the country to speak with college students about how their personal health and wellness will affect their ability to thrive in and out of college. He stressed that lack of exercise and sleep deprivation hurt academic performance and happiness.
