...women’s volleyball squad traveled to Hanover, N.H., Friday looking to avenge its first Ivy League loss against Dartmouth. But the Big Green (9-3, 2-0) again proved too much, sweeping the Crimson (5-7, 0-2) for the second time, 3-0 (30-23, 30-21, 30-25). “We came out really fired up,” senior Laura Mahon said. “But Dartmouth has maintained a level of play this year I’ve never seen before.
