DartmouthSports.com Athletes of the Week - Arent & Howard

Football has jumped out to a 2-0 start thanks, in large part, to the play of junior quarterback Nick Howard who averaged 17.1 yards per carry in a win over visiting Sacred Heart last weekend. Entering Ivy play the volleyball team hosted the Crimson of Harvard in a Friday night matchup. Despite falling behind, the Big Green tied the match before ultimately falling 3-2. Junior Makenzie Arent had her fifth double-double of the season to lead Dartmouth.

Their efforts are rewarded by being named the DartmouthSports.com Athletes of the week.
