Tennis

Also reporting in this month's "Coaches Corner" is Big Green tennis Mentor Red Hoehn whose story is just the opposite of lacrosse, for Dartmouth tennis is having one of its finest seasons.

In the recent New England Tournament, the Indians competed against sixteen other colleges and emerged with third-place honors. Playing for the Big Green were Ron Picket, Jim Biggs, Bill McClung and Gordie Aydglott, and all went three rounds before being stopped. Picket and McClung teamed up in the doubles and advanced into the second round of play before being dropped by the winning Yale twosome. Yale and Harvard finished first and second ahead of the Indians.

A week earlier Yale had showed its strength by defeating the Big Green, 7-2. Dartmouth's only other loss during the past month was an 8-1 setback by leagueleading Princeton. Dartmouth recorded decisive wins over Columbia, 8-1, Williams, 6-3, M.I.T., 6-3, Pennsylvania, 7-1, Army, 8-1, and Navy, 6-2.

Harvard, Brown, Amherst, Cornell and Colgate remain on the schedule, with Harvard and Cornell expected to pose the only threats. With another fine season already achieved and some equally fine prospects coming up from a fine freshman team, it appears as though tennis is Dartmouth's spring sport.
