Dartmouth Earns 17 All-Ivy League Spots But . . .

There will always be complaints regarding the All-Ivy League selections, from this player made it to that player was left off, to how can you have so many players on the first team, to why aren't there more receivers and fewer backs given how the game is played today?

All that said, Dartmouth once again received terrific recognition with eight spots on the first team, seven on the second and three on the honorable mention team, but rest assured going to be some quibbling and a lively debate on the message board. When you read down the team you'll know why.
