Equestrian rides to 10th at Nationals

|

The equestrian team concluded its most successful season by taking 10th place out of 16 schools at the IHSA Nationals competition last week in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. This season, the Big Green won both its regional and Zone competitions to qualify for the national horse show for the first time in program history.

Inside the Locker Room

|

Although most people picture Dartmouth athletes constantly decked out in uniform, game ready and prepped to crush a fellow Ivy in league play, the reality of life as an athlete is honestly more determined by “off” seasons than “on” seasons. Competition generally only spans one term, but off-season training is all-encompassing and year-round.

Endowed gifts fund College arts projects

|

The Hopkins Center and the Hood Museum have much in common. Physically, the two buildings share a connecting hallway, while abstractly, they share the goal of promoting education in the arts on campus. Both also would not exist if not for two large founding gifts, and gift giving remains a significant source of funds for both the Hop and Hood.

Bash the Trash makes music from local waste

|

From transforming long, cardboard carpet tubes and plastic straw into a flute to converting old tennis rackets and fire alarms into percussion instruments, Bash the Trash takes an artistic approach to sustainability, co-founder John Bertles said. Bash the Trash, founded in 1988 in New York City, will host workshops and “trash mob” concerts, as part of the Hopkins Center’s new Community Venture Initiative.

Baseball team wins one-game playoff for Rolfe Division crown

|

In the rain and against the odds, the Dartmouth baseball team brought home its seventh straight Red Rolfe Division title by crushing the Yale University Bulldogs 11-4 in a one-game playoff Sunday afternoon at Biondi Park. The team, rising from the hole it dug itself by opening the season with a 5-9 Ivy League record, ended on an eight-game winning streak, which it will take to Columbia University (25-17, 15-5 Ivy) next weekend for the Ivy League Championship Series.

Defense strong in Green-White football scrimmage

The football team closed its 12 spring practices with the Green-White scrimmage on Saturday at Memorial Field. An opportunity to evaluate the team’s readiness for the upcoming fall season, the low-scoring game displayed the strength of the team’s defense.

Rec League Legends

This week the Legends were ready to take on the men’s lacrosse team, a competition that I had been trash talking the entire year. Lacrosse is the only sport I ever played competitively, and I looked forward to matching up against the Big Green’s best. I was also looking forward to seeing Austin get out on the lacrosse field and seeing what he would do with a six foot pole in his hands.

One-on-One

I sat down with Kelsey Miller ’16, the starting third baseman for the softball team, to chat before the team’s big weekend. Miller helped keep the team’s hopes alive with a walk-off home run against Harvard University on April 27 in game two of the home doubleheader. In this weekend’s Ivy League Championship Series she scored two runs in the Big Green’s 2-1 series win over the University of Pennsylvania.
