The swim and dive team hit the road to get out of the cold New England weather with a trip to Miami (not the Florida one, but Miami (Ohio)) over the weekend. Julianne Jones made the most of the trip, setting a Big Green record in the 400 IM. The men's squash team followed suit, traveling to Virginia where they narrowly missed an upset. Christian Shah gave it his all, coming out on top in the No. 1 position over Virginia's John Paul Tew.
Their efforts are rewarded by being named The Richards Group Athletes of the week.
Each week, DartmouthSports.com will spotlight two outstanding student-athletes - one male, one female - as Athletes of the Week. Student-athletes may be chosen based upon their efforts both on and off the field of competition.
