Super Showing

Snapped this quick shot of Memorial Field on Thursday.
Several spring teams have used the field for practice.
A sweet letter to the editor in our local daily newspaper under the headline, Super Bowl Treat at Richmond School:
The Richmond Middle School Student Council along with the rest of the school would like to sincerely thank Dartmouth football running back Cody Patch and quarterback Alex Park for their willingness to participate in our Super Bowl week. Our physical education teacher, Ms. Patch, invited the team to help teach Richmond Middle School students the basics of football, play touch football with us and answer questions about themselves, Dartmouth and football. It was a very fun and exciting experience to have these two at our school, and we would like to express our gratitude. 
In what should be a surprise to no one, Dartmouth junior Abbey D'Agostino was the Most Outstanding Track Performer among the women at the indoor Heps over the weekend. From Hepstrack.com:
The Most Outstanding Track Performer for women was Dartmouth super junior Abbey D’Agostino, who broke both the Championships’ mile and 5k records. She shaved more than 11 seconds off the mile mark, finishing in 4:32.42. She also paced four others under the old mark of Cack Ferrell of Princeton in 2006. Her 15:47.02 in the 5k washed away Caroline Bierbaum’s record set for Columbia in 2005.
