Dartmouth hockey @ UVM Tournament

#14 Dartmouth's record goes to a bizarre 4-2-5 (3-0-3) on the year following yet another tie, this time to the 9th-ranked Minutemen of Massachusetts.

The goals for Dartmouth were scored by Darcy Marr '06, Hugh Jessiman '06 (on a 5v3 power play), and Nathan Szymanski '05. It was Marr's first goal of the year, Jessiman's seventh, and Szymanski's third.

Dartmouth came back from a 3-1 deficit to tie the game at 3 following Jessiman's goal late in the 2nd and Szymanski's in the first few minutes of the third. The two goals came after head coach Bob Gaudet '81 said the magic words to the ref, drawing an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. The fiery Gaudet sparked the team, however, and they managed to mount the comeback.

Dartmouth will finish their 9-game road trip when they face Minnesota State-Mankato tomorrow at 4 PM at the Gutterson Field House in Burlington, Vermont. They'll return home for the first time in two months on January 2nd, where they will face off against Vermont at Thompson Arena.

Holy Cross football taps former Dartmouth defensive coordinator

Tom Gilmore, the Crusaders' new head coach, helped the Indians to Ivy League championships in 1992 and 1996.

Holy Cross has been one of the few teams Dartmouth has beat perennially. They went 1-11 last season and still caught some flack for their decision for dismission to dismiss former Head Coach Dan Allen, who suffers from multiple chemical sensitivity, a rare disease that has confined him to a wheelchair.

Petition recognition

Pro-Israel activism at Dartmouth recognized.

On a side note, apparently there are Israeli and U.S. flags side by side in the Roth Center, which is uncomfortable for some non-Zionist Jews. I also recall an '03 who objected to a Hillel ski trip that conflicted with the sabbath.
