Hanover, NH (Sports Network) - Dartmouth College football is drawing off the
success of the first night game at Memorial Field last season with its 2012
opener against Butler.
The Big Green will host the Bulldogs from the Pioneer Football League at 7
p.m. Sept. 15.
A year ago, Dartmouth installed lights at Memorial Field and played its
inaugural game under the lights against Penn on Oct. 1. The game drew 8,117
fans, the second-biggest home crowd of the season.
Dartmouth will play five home games in its 10-game schedule. The lights also
will be needed for the Big Green's Homecoming game against Harvard, which has
a 5 p.m. kickoff Oct. 27.
The Big Green finished 5-5 under head coach Buddy Teevens last year.
