The Plano Star Courier (Texas) has a story about Dartmouth-bound quarterback Dylan Cadwallader and five Prestonwood Christian Academy teammates running the list of graduating teammates heading for the college football ranks up to a school-record 10. From the story:
Cadwallader ... is bound for the Ivy League ranks after submitting an all-state campaign at quarterback in his first year at Prestonwood.
“Everything about Dartmouth is just a step above everyone else that I was considering in terms of the school, the coaches, the players and the atmosphere. It was a perfect fit,” Cadwallader said.

Speaking of Dartmouth quarterbacks, if you watched the Arizona Hotshots' 38-22 win over the Salt Lake Stallions last night you could pick out Jack Heneghan '18 in his familiar No. 11 on the sidelines. Heneghan spent the summer with the San Francisco 49ers and engineered a touchdown drive in the 49ers' final exhibition game.

This year's Dartmouth Winter Carnival snow sculpture wouldn't make anyone forget the towering works of art from the past, but it was a start after several years of disappointment on the Green. And for that the college has senior defensive lineman Jimmy McHugh largely to thank. From a story in The Dartmouth:
Last year, the snow sculpture was not a College-organized endeavor, but rather funded and built by a group of students and alumni.
“We were very much working on our own,” said Jimmy McHugh ’19, who helped to organize and build both this and last year’s sculpture.And this . . .
While (Chris) Cartwright and the Dartmouth Outing Club headed up most of the snow sculpting, McHugh led members of the football team and Gamma Delta Chi in volunteer efforts.And from an earlier story mentioning the contribution to the sculpture building of another player to the effort (LINK):
Last year, however, (offensive lineman) Andrew Yohe ’18 and Zoe Dinneen ’18 decided to bring the sculpture back. In order to carry on the tradition for the 2019 Carnival, they taught James McHugh ’19 the ins and outs of snow sculpting. McHugh is adamant that the sculpture tradition must continue.McHugh told the school paper:
“Traditions are important, especially during winter when everyone is cooped up inside,” he said. “It is good to bring people outside for a common goal. People get excited about it. It really is a core part of Dartmouth’s identity.”Green Alert Take: Kudos to McHugh, Yohe and the football team for helping Dartmouth keep hold of at least some of its identity.
