After finishing fourth in the Ivy League last season, the men’s soccer team will rely on its familiarity with the system, the return of co-captain Ben Maurey ’15.5 and a talented crop of first-years in hopes of propelling itself toward a conference championship. Bruno will trot out a very similar ...
The women’s rugby team steps back onto the pitch this year as the 10th varsity women’s rugby team in the nation.

I don’t have a TV. This means I have the fortune of streaming live games on the Internet. But while the Internet is amazing, when it comes to broadcasting live events, it’s not quite there yet. The picture lags, and the image quality resembles what I assume the picture on the first color televisions ...
The men’s lacrosse team retained control of the Ocean State Cup by knocking off Bryant University 13-11 in a Tuesday evening matchup on Stevenson Field.

As Jim Nantz tells us so often, the Masters Tournament truly is a tradition unlike any other. For golf fans, there is no better remedy after a long, golf-less winter than the green fairways and greener jackets of the Augusta National Golf Club. We look forward to those trademark azaleas all year long, ...
The men’s and women’s tennis teams both fell to Ivy foes Harvard and Dartmouth this weekend in blows to each team’s conference record. The Crimson overpowered both teams Saturday. The men fell 4-2, while the women came up short 4-3. Sunday brought two more defeats, with the men and women losing ...
The women’s lacrosse team lost its fourth straight Ivy League game Saturday, falling 12-6 to a strong No. 10 Penn squad.

Despite a reasonably tight final scoreline of 14-9, the men’s lacrosse team suffered a trouncing at the hands of the Big Red Saturday. Cornell led by as many as nine goals on its home field late in the fourth quarter before it subbed in most of its bench players and the Bears scored a slew of garbage-time ...
Eastern Conference: No. 1 Pacers vs. No. 8 Hawks Pacers in six We begin with by far the least interesting series in the playoffs. This has to be the worst series since, well, Pacers-Hawks 2013. Actually, version 2.0 is worse. The 2013 teams weren’t all that exciting, but it wasn’t their fault. ...
The softball team dropped three of its four games against Dartmouth this weekend, but in the final game of the four-game set, it beat the first-place Big Green to end a 28-game losing streak. The first three games of the series were disappointments, as the Bears (3-31, 1-15 Ivy) lost by a combined ...
I was stunned by the results of a recent Washington Post/ABC News poll. Apparently, 64 percent of people oppose paying college athletes. Only 33 percent support it. I’m guessing those 64 percent buy into one of the two arguments repeated ad nauseam for why college athletes shouldn’t get paid. I ...

The baseball team fell to the College of the Holy Cross 9-0 Wednesday, but as Dartmouth comes to College Hill for a four-game series this weekend, the Bears will aim to improve upon last weekend’s road split against Harvard.

The baseball team took down the Harvard Crimson Sunday to earn just its second conference win this season, with an outstanding performance from Dave St. Lawrence ’15.
