Hi folks-
 
Dartmouth and UVM played a home and home series this weekend. After traveling
to Vermont on Friday and suffering a 7-3 loss, Dartmouth came back this
evening to trounce UVM 11-4. It looks like Dartmouth finally woke up to play
the kind of hockey they were expected to play this year.
 
In the two games this weekend there were 25 goals scored. Vermont dominated
on Friday and Dartmouth dominated on Saturday. Saturday marked the debut of
Dartmouth's freshman goalie, Ben Heller, who played a solid game in the net.
 
In Friday's game, Dartmouth Sophomer winger Bill Kelleher suffered a broken
arm and is likely to miss most or all of the season. This is a serious blow
to the Big Green since BK was Dartmouth's third leading scorer last year and
was the third member of the high scoring Fraser-DelCarmine-Kelleher line.
 
Dartmouth dominated this game from the opening minute. Scoring was as
follows:
 
period 1:
 1:05: Dartmouth goal Brent Retter from Turcotte and Delmonte (D 1 - UVm 0)
 1:29: Dartmouth goal Dax Burkhart from Geary and Hughes (2-0)
 4:22: Dartmouth PPG Tony DelCarmine from Collins and Fraser (3-0)
 6:16: Dartmouth PPG Scott Fraser from Dodman and DelCarmine (4-0)

Saves       1   2   3  Tot
Vermont:    8   6  11   25
Dartmouth:  3  10  13   26
 
Scoring     1   2   3  Tot
Vermont:    1   1   2    4
Dartmouth:  4   3   4   11
 
Dartmouth travels to BC on Tuesday night in what should be an interesting
test of where Dartmouth really stands at this point in the season.
