With the win, Dartmouth finished the season with an overall record of 8-2—its best record in 17 years. The Big Green finished second in the Ivy League, with a record of 6-1 in league play.

Dartmouth’s win on Saturday was its fifth in a row against Princeton. The victory was also the 100th career win for Big Green Head Coach Buddy Teevens ’79.

The Dartmouth men’s soccer team lost to Providence College 3-0 in the second round of the NCAA Division I Men’s Soccer Tournament on Nov. 23.

“Tonight was tough. I thought we were very good in the first half but we didn’t capitalize on our opportunities,” said head coach . “It is always an abrupt ending unless you are the last team standing.  It is certainly hard to process right now, but I couldn’t be prouder of our team. They have competed all year so well, and continued to grow all year.”

Dartmouth ended the season with a 12-5-2 overall record and a share of the Ivy League title.

The Dartmouth women’s cross country team finished 20th at the NCAA Division I Women’s Cross Country Championship on Nov. 22. The meet was hosted by Indiana State and held on the 6-kilometer LaVern Gibson Championship Cross Country Course.

Seven Big Green runners competed at the championship. The team was led by Dana Giordano ’16, who finished 45th overall with a time of 20:49. Dartmouth was the lone Ivy League representative at nationals on either the men’s or women’s side.

Earlier this fall, the Big Green captured its second straight Ivy League Heptagonal Championship.
