Two More

Add running back Jordan Argilagos and defensive lineman Tamerick Simpson to the list of incoming Dartmouth recruits according to their Twitter accounts.

The 5-11, 185 Argilagos comes from Wesleyan High School in Norcross, Ga., where last fall he rushed for 1,280 yards and 11 touchdowns according to MaxPreps. He topped 100 yards seven times while averaging 6.4 yards per carry and 106.7 yards per game. He also caught 15 passes for 250 yards.

The Gwinnett Daily addresses his change of position from corner/receiver to running back in his junior year and Recruiting News has a Q&A with him.

Find his Twitter announcement HERE and his highlight video HERE.

The 6-3, 225 Simpson hails from Miami. After Miami Central he spent a year at the Berkshire School. Find Tamerick "TJ" Simpson's Twitter announcement HERE. Watch his postgrad highlight video HERE.
Nice win by Dartmouth men's basketball last night over five-time defending Ivy League champion Harvard, 63-50, for the Big Green's first victory over Harvard in Hanover since 2008. (LINK) The women's team also defeated Harvard, 70-64 (LINK), and the men's hockey team completed a terrific weekend that began with a 3-0 win at No. 10 Cornell by winning at Colgate Saturday night, 3-2.
For what it's worth, while much of the east is dealing with up to three feet of snow we didn't get a single flake here in the Upper Valley.
And finally, That Certain Dartmouth '14 had an interesting week at Everglades National Park as National Park Service Director Jonathan Jarvis visited the park to observe the program she is helping to run. She was privileged to have the chance to greet and chat with him when he arrived at the program a little early. Special stuff for a young ranger!
