Dartmouth Wins Ivy Championship
Sunday, November 8, 2015
It was a tale of two halves as Brown took a 12-0 lead into the half in what was described as a fierce wind. The match changed as Dartmouth took the wind into the second half and after tying the match 12-12 near the 60 minute mark of the match, scored with two minutes left to go to win 19-12.
Audrey Perez ’17 broke free for the Ivy League Championship-winning try. Dartmouth converted its extra point and held on to the lead to secure the 19-12 victory and its first Ivy League title in its debut season as a varsity program.
