Dartmouth vs. Tufts JV Fall 2007

at Dartmouth


Tufts def. Dartmouth 5-4

In a very competetive match, Dartmouth put out a good showing. Two of the matches going to third set super-breakers, the entire contest literally turned on just a handful of points. Though we couldn't quite pull it out, we remain encouraged that our young, but solid team continues to turn in solid performances against quality opposition.

Braving illness, Bailey Shen '9 provides moral support to the team and guards our mascot, the pet rock.
Dan Cohen '8 stares down the opposition.
Ben Siegel '11 proceeds to double over and be violently ill, while doubles partner Alex Reeder '11 laughs nonchalantly. Poisoning has not been ruled out.
Mario Armira '11 and Sam McElhinney '11 show off their guns to the ladies after their doubles match. Luckily they were both carrying permits.
Sam Dow '10 demonstrates perfect forehand volley form for the cameras; Zach Rioux '11, less so
Rob Hoffman '10 makes an existential artistic statement about the flows of water in and out of the human body, and how it unites all mankind. Wenda Gu was not present.
James Francis '10 prepares to serve. Hopefully Tufts will never lay hands on such incontrovertible evidence of his foot-fault.
