That said, there's news about former Dartmouth coaches on the Internet today.
•
The Penn website formally introduces former Big Green tight ends/tackles coach Kyle Metzler as its new TE coach HERE. Metzler, a Yale grad and former Bulldog standout, was on the staff at Dartmouth from 2012 through last fall. Find his Dartmouth bio HERE.

Dartmouth celebrated the dedication of the Wielgus Lounge in the basketball office complex of the Berry Center with a luncheon for 250 at the Hanover Inn Saturday afternoon. Legendary (yes, that's the right term) former women's basketball coach Chris Wielgus was the guest of honor and gave one of the most inspiring (and certainly the most entertaining) speeches I've ever heard by anyone associated with Dartmouth athletics.
There's a five-minute video highlight from the luncheon (and halftime celebration of that night's game) HERE. Here's hoping the full speech is available somewhere because it is essentially an oral history of women's sports, not just at Dartmouth but in the country.
