SEASON OPENER
Dartmouth opens the 2023-24 season on Tuesday evening against Assumption at Thompson Arena. Puck drop is scheduled for 7 p.m.

The Big Green are opening the year with a non-conference game for the first time since the 2016-17 season and looking for their first season-opening win since a 2-1 victory over Harvard in the 2015-16 season.

LOOKING BACK TO LAST YEAR
The Big Green finished the 2022-23 year with an 8-21-0 overall record with a 4-18-0 record in ECAC Hockey play. Dartmouth picked up its first win of the year in a 2-0 victory on the road at Rensselaer on Nov. 4. They went 4-3 in non-conference play, claiming victories over Post, Saint Anselm, Merrimack and Stonehill.

The Big Green defeated No. 10 Cornell, 5-1, on the road at Lynah Rink in late January for their first win over a ranked opponent since 2015.

Dartmouth ended the year on a high note, defeating Brown by a score of 2-1 in the season finale.

LEADERSHIP
Senior Sophie Robinson and junior Lauren Messier will serve as the captains of the Big Green for the year. Seniors Annie King and Tiffany Hill and junior Laura Fuoco will be the assistant captains.

A LOOK AT THE RETURNERS
Jenna Donohue and Fuoco both finished with 14 points a season ago. Donohue tallied eight goals and six assists while Fuoco had six goals and eight assists.
