Given that my current extracurriculars begin and end with sports writing and mock trial, it makes sense that I’d finally take the opportunity to link them together. Last year, our neighbors to the west at Yale University put on a masterclass in the mock trial national championships, stringing together a compelling and entertaining performance that earned […]
The women’s basketball team wrapped up their regular season last week. In their last two games of the season, the Cards defeated Colby then tragically lost in their final game of the season against Bowdoin. This season has been up and down for the Red and Black, and the team finished with a 3–5 record in […]
Note: Emma Smith ’22 is a Features Editor for the Argus. The women’s squash team has battled all season, but this past weekend they faced their biggest test of the year: the College Squash Association (CSA) Nationals tournament. Yale University was set to host this season, which gave the Cards a slight home court advantage because they […]
The NBA season is officially in its home stretch. The All-Star break is over, and while many people, myself very much included, are still frustrated about the most egregious All-Star snub of all time (Zach “13 3’s in one game” LaVine), it’s time to look to the future. This brings us to The Argus’ official […]
The men’s basketball team’s season ended this past weekend. Unfortunately, the Cardinals missed the cutoffs for the NESCAC tournament in the ever-competitive conference. Finishing in 9th place out of the 11 teams in the conference, they were only one game away from a playoff spot. On Friday, the team traveled to Waterville, Maine, for a […]
The men’s hockey season has been defined by one word: inconsistency. They have not won back to back games since Jan. 18th and 19th. Over the weekend, the trend continued when the team beat Colby on the road, but then lost to Bowdoin the next day. This erratic stretch left the Cards with a record of 7–8–1 in […]
Women’s swimming and diving took eighth place in the annual NESCAC Championship last weekend, a slight drop off from their program best, sixth-place performance last season. Although the team didn’t come out on the top of the ’CAC, the day was filled with success across the (diving) board: a NESCAC title, a new varsity record, […]
In 1918, the Boston Red Sox won the World Series. In 1919, the team failed to repeat as champions and had a mediocre year. Before the 1920 season, the Red Sox traded away their best player because of the owner’s selfishness when it came to finances. Today, it is still condemned as one of the […]
With the difficult Little Three championship behind them, the men’s squash team was hoping to build momentum at the NESCAC championship. This year, the Cards traveled up north to Brunswick, Maine to compete in a tournament hosted at Bowdoin College. The first match of the day had the Cardinals against Colby. The Mules had the decisive […]
My dad often jokes that I enjoy the NBA trade deadline more than the actual games. Of course, that’s not true. After all, the whole point of following the flurry of action on deadline day is to see which teams will act aggressively to improve their chances at a championship, and which teams will sacrifice […]
