Early start for Dartmouth

Dartmouth College has released its 2022 schedule. Along with the slate of 21 Ivy League games, Dartmouth will play non-conference contests in the states of Kentucky, North Carolina, Florida and Massachusetts to round out its 40 games on the docket.

The Big Green opens the season with a three-game series at Louisville Feb. 25-27. The Cardinals played in an NCAA Regional every year of the 2010 decade, advancing to the College World Series four times. The following weekend, Dartmouth will take on Gardner-Webb of the Big South Conference in a four-game set in Boiling Springs, N.C., prior to winter exams.

The spring trip will send the squad to Auburndale, Fla., to play eight games in the Sunshine State from March 16-23, taking on opponents such as Bradley, Central Connecticut State and Fairfield, among others.

The Big Green will play its first games at Red Rolfe Field at Biondi Park since May 5, 2019, when they host Brown in a three-game series to open Ivy League play on March 26-27, marking the earliest home opener in program history. Four of the next five series in the Ancient Eight will be played on the road; Princeton will be the lone league opponent to come to town in that stretch on April 16-17.

Mid-week non-conference games will be at UMass Lowell (April 5), and on the home turf against Siena (April 20), Holy Cross (April 26) and Merrimack (May 4). An open weekend on May 7-8 will provide Dartmouth an opportunity to make up games that might be postponed or schedule another opponent before wrapping up the season with Ancient Eight rival Columbia in Hanover on May 14-15.

The top two teams in the standings will vie for the Ivy League Championship in a best-of-three series on May 21-22 at the home field of the regular-season champion.
