In the language of Northern New England, it is "way wicked" early to spend much time or effort discussing the next recruiting class even before the current one steps foot on campus. That said, with 6-3, 205 linebacker Tom Patek of Carmel Catholic in Illinois having already committed, I thought to take a look at who one of the top recruiting services is listing as Dartmouth prospects in the high school class of 2009. A couple of red flags: 1) This same service listed 29 potential Dartmouth recruits last year and nine are coming. 2) Tom Patek is not on the 2009 list.
Keeping that in mind, here are the players listed by Scout.com: Andy Dittrich, QB, Breck School, Minneapolis; Mike Tree, DT, Brophy Prep, Phoenix; Anthony Greco, MLB, Notre Dame Prep, Scottsdale, Ariz.; Mike Chocholousek, MLB, Mountain Ridge, Glendale, Ariz.; Lange Nelson, SLB, Palos Verdes Peninsula, Rolling Hills, Calif. and Michael Tomakili, WLB, Palisades Charter HS, Pacific Palisades, Calif.
Several regular readers have emailed for suggestions about places to stay in Hanover this fall. Find Dartmouth's recommendations here. Hanover's Chamber of Commerce has a list. So does the Dartmouth Medical School. There's also a Dartmouth Office of Alumni Relations list.
As one of the proud 814-or-so folks who live in Etna (a rural "village" in Hanover), I'd be remiss if I didn't mention two local choices. If you like rustic with absolutely gorgeous views looking out over the Vermont mountains (and perhaps the Adirondacks if it's a very, very clear day), you might want to consider Moose Mountain Lodge. Down in Etna Village itself is the Trumbull House Bed & Breakfast.
