Transcript of Associated File:

Coach Oberg: And there are some signs of history in the program all in the area here you can see the first team All-Ivy dating back to when the Ivy League was founded and then all the championship teams are on the wall, and if you go into the lounge you’ll see some old artifacts, relics of days gone by, pictures on the wall and stars and what not so there is a little bit of historical relevance for some of the kids if they’re interested. Especially for alumni if thy come back and they do, it’s amazing how many children of alumni who have passed away wanna see their dad or their uncle or their grandfather or somebody who played football for Dartmouth they go into the computer room in there and look at it on the screen and see a picture of them in their uniform.
