THIS WEEKEND
Dartmouth volleyball will be on the road for three matches in a row, starting with Yale and Brown this weekend. These are the last two Ivy League opponents that the Big Green have not yet faced in 2018.

LAST TIME OUT
At home last weekend, Dartmouth split its matches, falling to Princeton, 3-0 (18-25, 16-25, 17-25) before taking down Penn by the same score (25-23, 25-22, 25-22).

Elise Petit had one of her best weekends, leading the team with a total of 15 kills (2.50/set) and 16.5 points. She also had three digs and three block assists. Carly Tower and Nicole Liddle were close behind with 14 points apiece. Tower had 13 kills, one dig and one solo block, while Liddle ended up with 10 kills, two aces, 16 digs and two solo blocks.

SCOUTING THE BULLDOGS
Yale is tied for first in the conference with Princeton and Cornell with a 4-1 mark, its one loss coming against the Tigers a few weeks ago. The Bulldogs will be playing at home for the first time since Sept. 1 after playing 11 road matches.

LAST TIME AGAINST YALE
The Big Green fell to the Bulldogs twice last season, both by scores of 3-0.

SCOUTING THE BEARS
Brown enters the weekend with an 8-7 mark and are 1-4 in the conference. The Bears are second to last in the standings, sitting ahead of Penn, which is winless in Ivy play.

LAST TIME AGAINST BROWN
The Big Green went 2-0 against the Bears last season, winning by a score of 3-0 at home in October before taking the match, 3-1, less than a month later on the road.
