Another solid and almost dominating effort by the Dutchmen, but the Big Green
take advantage of scoring opportunities and defeat Union tonight 2-1 at
Achilles.
Nick Boucher was excellent in goal for Dartmouth, stopping many of Union's good
scoring chances.

With the win, combined with Yale's loss to Cornell, Dartmouth finishes in third
place and earns the final first-round bye. Union finishes 6th and gets to host
their arch rival RPI next weekend in Schenectady.
