None of the Ivy League schools give athletic grants -- for any sport.
However, they all have generous amounts of financial aid to give, and parts
of it happen to go to hockey players, etc.
 
I'll let someone else venture the opinion about how "athletics blind"
Dartmouth's scholarships actually are.
