Saturday, February 15, 2003Dartmouth sweeps North Country teams for 1st timeDartmouth finally broke through a barrier, as they swept the North Country teams for the first time since the current travel partner schedule started in the mid-80's. The 3-1 win tonight over Clarkson, combined with last night's 5-3 win over St. Lawrence, gave Dartmouth its first four-point weekend against the duo. The closest Dartmouth had come previously was in January of 1988, when they tied Clarkson 4-4 before beating SLU 5-4 in an OT period that featured a bench-clearing brawl at the end.It was an extremely ugly game for the most part, with the only scoring in the first 55 minutes coming off a 190-footer from behind Clarkson's own goal line that dipped as it was nearing Boucher and snuck between his pads and into the net to give them the 1-0 lead. Dartmouth rallied late in the 3rd and finally broke through as Jarrett Sampson knocked home a Pete Summerfelt rebound. Dartmouth would take the lead while on a delayed penalty situation when Mike Oullette deflected a Sean Offers shot from the point into the net. Mike Murray would add an empty-netter to ice it for the team. Both teams were scoreless with the man advantage, as Dartmouth went 0-5 while Clarkson went 0-3 on the PP. Dartmouth improves to 14-10-1 (10-8-0) with just four games remaining in the regular season. They remain in a tie for fourth place in the conference with Brown and Union, and trail Yale by 4 points for 3rd place. The team concludes its home schedule this coming weekend with Harvard on Friday and Brown on Saturday. Dartmouth is currently 11-2-0 at Thompson arena this season, with two wins next weekend assuring them home ice in the playoffs and keeping them in contention for that all-important #4 seed and the accompanying 1st round bye.

Hugh Jessiman had a pair of goals including the eventual game winner as he continues to pull away in the race for ECAC Freshman of the Year. Chris Snizek, Jarrett Sampson, and Mike Murray also netted one apiece in the victory, while Mike Oullette added a pair of assists. Nick Boucher made 25 saves in net. Dartmouth went 1-3 on the power play, while SLU went 1-5. Dartmouth improved to 13-10-1 (9-8-0) with the victory, and moved into a 3-way tie for fourth in the ECAC standings with Brown and Union College with just 5 games to play. 4th place will be a key position this year, as under the new playoff format the #1-4 seeds get a weekend off with a first round bye and get home ice in the 2nd round best-of-3 series. The team returns to action tomorrow night when they take on Clarkson at Thompson Arena. Dartmouth has never swept a weekend series against SLU and Clarkson home or away. The team finishes its home schedule next weekend when it takes on Harvard Friday night and closes with Brown on Senior Night. They finish the regular season on the road at Union and RPI in two weeks.

Posted by Emmett at 10:02 AM (0 comments) Tuesday, February 11, 2003Parade of FoolsI think they're having a competition over at Free Dartmouth (from what?). They're looking to see who can make the most boneheaded statements with respects to the Campus Crusade for Christ (CCC) -- statements that will reveal the speakers' numbing ignorance, their blind bigotry, or maybe even both.Karsten Barde gets an honorable mention for his easy equation of religious belief with religious intolerance. Jonathan Eisenman's platitudinous repudiation of Christians who (Heaven forbid!) actually live by their faith wins him second place. But the enchilada goes to the redoubtable Jared Alessandroni, who delights us with not one, but two glaring examples of his rabid intolerance. Alessandroni not only links the CCC with the KKK; he also repudiates the notion that people with deep convictions should actually try to espouse them. Funny: the West has managed to replace arms with argument in the advocacy of deeply-held beliefs. Most of the world sees this as a triumph, yet Alessandroni sees this as an inividous evil. What time will you be throwing the Christians to the lions, Jared? To provide perspective... this nation suffers in the hands of those conservative Protestants who dominate in Congress, and we owe it to ourselves to fight the spread of religious intolerance tooth and nail. While CCC may be a sufficiently circumspect and politically cautious organization on the Dartmouth campus, religious pluralism is under direct threat from CCC and other fundamentalist "student evangelists" (read well-funded apparatchiks) on campuses around the country. - Karsten Barde Well, no, [CCC] never actually enacted violence as a tactic. But, I mean, the KKK hasn't for awhile either. - Jared Alessandroni See, it's one thing to go in with swords and armor, clanging around about what you believe. But a crusade of thought, against other people's beliefs and ideals, this is in some ways even worse. - Jared Alessandroni [I agree] with Jared. I have no love of CCC, or the values they seem to espouse as an organization. I am reminded of something I once heard - the biggest obstacles to understanding and appreciating the teachings of Christ are Christians. - Jonathan Eisenman Full post and comments below the fold.

Harry Camp said it looked like a sword with a "D" on it in the head with green blood flowing down, and that there were some signs that were removed before he could read them. Alston Ramsay said it was definitely a sword, and that FO&M tore it down because it was vandalized. Full post and comments below the fold.
