Tailback Rob Hollomon was named the national offensive player of the week after one of the biggest wins in school history. Nick San Giacomo is a solid quarterback but the defense is still a work in progress. at UNH – The Wildcats advanced to the national semifinals a year ago and return a wealth of players this fall. Quarterback Sean Goodrich can run and throw. Tailback Nico Steriti ran for 1,028 yards a year ago while wide receiver RJ Harris was grabbing 76 passes for 1,062 yards. UNH will be a handful playing the first home night game in school history. PENN – Coach Al Bagnoli begins his final year at the helm without quarterback Billy Ragone, who tortured Dartmouth for five years. Alek Torgersen is unproven but Bagnoli has expressed great confidence in him. Conner Scott is a talented receiver but the offensive line is an area of concern. The Quakers are solid at linebacker and in the secondary but have had to rebuild the defensive front that has long been their signature. at YALE – Tailback Tyler Varga battled injuries last fall but if he’s 100 percent he’s as good as anyone in the Ivy League. With a year of seasoning after transferring from Clemson, Morgan Roberts will begin the season at quarterback. Fifth-year receiver Deon Randall is dangerous any time he touches the football. Defensive end Victor Egu could be a monster for the Bulldogs, who return two All-Ivy League players in the secondary. HOLY CROSS – Peter Pujals might be the best dual-threat quarterback Dartmouth faces this year. Top running back Gabe Guild also returns although he suffered a head injury in the seasonopening loss at Albany. Three starters and a fifth-year senior are back up front. The secondary is the most seasoned unit in a retooled defense. at COLUMBIA – The Lions lost heralded Stanford transfer Brett Nottingham in their first game last fall and without the big quarterback they finished 0-10. Nottingham is back but the Lions’ top running back and tight end have graduated. All-Ivy lineman Niko Padilla heads up a defense that lost its top four tacklers and will have to improve. HARVARD – Ho hum, Harvard is loaded again. Leading the way are returning quarterback Connor Hempel and tailback Paul Stanton, Jr., the leading returning rusher in the Ivy League. Returning at receiver is a third All-Ivy pick in Ricky Zorn, and the offensive line might be the best in Tim Murphy’s tenure. Pass rusher Zach Hodges is the star of a relatively young defense and might be the best defensive player in the conference. at CORNELL – Record-setting QB Jeff Mathews has finally graduated, but for all his big numbers he was never able to get Cornell over the .500 hump. The offense will run through tailback Luke Hagy, also a talented receiver out of the backfield. The push will be to improve the run game and step up the defense this year, but the Big Red could struggle on both counts with a largely unproven cast defensively. BROWN – No team in the nation took a bigger graduation hit than Brown, which lost the league’s leading rusher and 11 members of the first or second All-Ivy team. The Bears have a solid dual-threat QB in Marcus Fuller and a talented linebacker in Daniel Giovacchini to lead the defense. Coach Phil Estes has a talent for rebuilding and that skill will be put to the test. at PRINCETON – The Tigers lost a lot and they return a lot. Foremost among the missing is NFL draft pick Caraun Reid, a devastating defensive lineman. Foremost among the returnees is QB Quinn Epperly, the reigning Bushnell Cup winner as the top offensive player in the league. Top rusher DiAndre Atwater also returns. The secondary will be the strength WEEK 10 of the defense, but the offense is the strength of the team after averaging 43.7 points in 2013. 5 Newsletter of The Friends of Dartmouth Football 2014 Dartmouth Big Green Season Preview The glue-handed McManus had 10 catches in the first two games last year before being lost for the View from the Press Box By Bruce Wood Big Green Alert season. Two years ago he was a close second on the team with 42 catches. Williams, meanwhile, is coming off a season in which he was second on the team with 21 In June the first Dartmouth class to graduate with a winning career record in 15 years collected its diplomas. Hopes are high that when this year’s seniors graduate they’ll do so wearing the school’s first Ivy League championship rings since 1996. While defending co-champions Harvard and Princeton will provide a formidable challenge, the Big Green has the most talent OFFENSE catches despite missing three games with injuries. With his quickness, he can be a terror in the open field. Quarterback Dalyn Williams Speedy junior Brian Grove is a threat to go the distance any time he gets the ball in his hands, Teevens returned as head coach in whether getting around the corner 2005 and optimism reigns. or out of the backfield.

Graduation hit Dartmouth hard at the tight end spot where senior Sam Laptad and sophomore Blake Orvis are the most experienced returnees. Laptad caught a 23-yard pass in last year’s opener at Butler but then was hurt and missed the remainder of the season. One-time tackle Pat Hand had a good spring to put himself in position to get time as a senior and will vie with two other returnees and four freshmen for the chance to get on the field. The offensive line graduated AllIvy League first-teamer Cohle Fow l e r b u t r e t u r n s a n o t h e r member of that elite group in senior Scotty Whitmore. Helping anchor the line will be senior cocaptain Sean Ronan, another returning starter at center. The other full-time starter returning is junior Jacob Flores.

Junior David Caldwell and senior Josh Winslow will be among the first to rotate in.

Senior Evan Chrustic and junior Cody Fulleton are proven talents who were both ond team last end. Junior AJ Jeff Winthrop space-eaters on the All-Ivy secyear at defensive Zuttah and senior are experienced i n s i d e . Th e r e ’s enough depth and talent among the rest of the D-linemen that the Big Green should be able to rotate players through and stay fresh for 60 minutes. While there’s plenty of reason to believe there will be improvement, getting to the quarterback is among the areas of concern on the defensive side this fall. The promise is there but it has been some time since Dartmouth had the kind of pass rush that wins championships.
