Picture This


In a photo from the Manning Passing Academy, Dartmouth quarterback Dalyn Williams and coach Buddy Teevens flank wide receivers coach Jerry Taylor and Lisa Friel '79, who oversees the NFL's independent investigations in off-field misconduct cases.
The 34th annual Prouty fundraiser for Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center's Norris Cotton Cancer Center raised $3.15 million dollars with participants walking, biking rowing, playing golf or taking part through the Internet. (LINK)

Susan Wright, wife of former president Jim Wright, led the fundraising with $43,204 followed in order by former Dartmouth Athletic Director Josie Harper ($41,564), former Dartmouth quarterback David Bradley '58 ($30,153) and Judy Csatari '76 ($27,102), wife of all-time Dartmouth football great Tom Csatari '74.
The Big XII is starting to catch up to the Ivy League. From a story:
As part of its annual media days, the Big 12 announced Monday a new rule limiting full contact days during football season. The 10 members teams are now permitted two days of full, helmet-to-helmet contact per week – and that includes game day. This leaves teams with two days of full-padded practice during fall camp and off weeks, and one such day during a game week. The rule goes into effect beginning with fall camp.
The University of New Hampshire is adding a four-sided, video scoreboard to its hockey rink at the beautiful Whittemore Center. (LINK) As someone who always seems to be looking the other way when a goal is scored, I've got to tell you the games I've seen at Penn State's rink have been made hugely more enjoyable by being able to see what I missed on their board. As nice as it is to have a video board at a football game, it's even more useful at ice hockey in my opinion.
