Big sports weekend in Hanover

Dartmouth (3-5, 2-3 in Ivy league play) looks to get back to its winning ways at home this weekend in both football and men’s hockey. The football team hosts the winless Brown Bears (0-8, 0-5) in its final home game of the year on Saturday at Memorial Stadium.

The hockey team hopes for a repeat of last year’s classic weekend when Colgate and Cornell come to town tonight and tomorrow at Thompson Arena. The puck drops at 7:05 EST. Dartmouth (1-3-0, 0-2-0 in ECAC play) is looking to rebound following a pair of losses last weekend to Brown and Harvard. Last year at Thompson Arena Dartmouth upended Cornell 1-0 in OT in the best home game of the year (Jamie Herrington ’02 got the lone goal), then followed it up with a 4-3 come-from-behind win over Colgate, with Herrington again scoring the game-winner, this time with 15 seconds left in regulation. Also of note, Dartmouth is 6-0-1 against Cornell since 1998.
