HANOVER, N.H. – The Dartmouth men's hockey team hosts Colgate and Cornell for its last regular home weekend of the 2009-10 season.

Dartmouth is needing some valuable league points as playoffs are just around the corner.

The Big Green began the series with 11 straight wins and currently leads in the series 40-39-4. Earlier this season the Raiders took a 3-2 victory over Dartmouth in Hamilton.

SCOUTING COLGATE
Colgate brings a 12-13-5 overall record and a 9-8-1 ECAC Hockey record to Hanover this weekend. The Raiders just recently lost to Cornell, 6-2 before splitting last weekend to Yale (3-6) and Brown (6-2). Colgate has won or tied six of its last 10 games. The Raiders sit in sixth place in the league standings with 18 points.
