Dylan Molloy ’17 wasn’t supposed to be this good. At least according to many of the country’s elite lacrosse programs who overlooked the New York native back in 2012. Luckily for Brown, Molloy found his way to Providence and has since emerged as one of the nation’s most elite attackmen. Last ...
After a couple of hard-fought but disappointing finishes at the ECAC Division I Indoor Championships, both the men’s and women’s tennis teams are looking to get their seasons back on track. Over the long weekend, both teams accomplished that very goal by going undefeated. For the No. 57 women’s ...

Two weeks ago, I made the 20-minute trek from my off-campus apartment up to the Pizzitola Center to watch the men’s basketball team take on Princeton. I like to get to the court early and stake out a good seat, but at 5:45 p.m. — a full 15 minutes before the start of the game — droves of people ...
It was a packed house Sunday at the Pizzitola Sports Center, where over 700 spectators spent their Valentine’s Day at the second annual Beauty and the Beast competition.

For a men’s hockey team that has won two conference games this season, picking up a point in a 3-3 tie against No. 15 Cornell is an occasion to be celebrated.

On the heels of a three-match winning streak, the men’s tennis team lost all three of its matches at the ECAC Division I Indoor Championships this weekend. As the sixth-seeded team out of eight, the Bears (4-3) fell 4-0 to all three of their opponents — No. 34 Dartmouth, St. John’s and eventual ...
The boat surged through the water, buffeted by high winds and falling snow. It was late fall, and the temperature was hovering in the mid-30s. In other words, it was hardly sailing weather. “It was snowing, it was so windy, you couldn’t feel any limbs,” said Megan Grapengeter-Rudnick ’17, newly ...
Each season, the Ivy League team with the best conference record is granted automatic entry to the NCAA basketball tournament because the Ancient Eight does not have a separate qualifying tournament.
