A three-time, first-team All-Ivy League pick, Dale was exceptional throughout his career and capped his senior season by capturing NABC All-District honors. An honorable mention Associated Press All-American as a sophomore in 2008 as Ivy League Player of the Year, he led the conference in assists (4.7) while also setting a career high in steals (42) in his final season when he posted 12.8 points, 4.7 assists and 2.9 rebounds and shot 47 percent from the floor, 39 percent from 3-point range and 85 percent from the charity stripe. He was named Ivy League Player of the Week once in 2009-10 and set the school's career assist record with 470. Dale became one of five Ivy League players to post 1,300 points, 400 rebounds, 400 assists and 100 steals in their career. His driving layup with 0.7 seconds left against Davidson at Madison Square Garden sent the contest into overtime, a game Cornell won with Ryan Wittman's buzzer-beater to advance to the championship game. He ranks among the school's top 10 all-time in scoring, assists, 3-pointers, 3-point percentage and free-throw percentage, among other categories. Dale was outstanding in three NCAA tournament games in helping Cornell to the Sweet 16, averaging 21.3 points and 4.0 assists while shooting 51 percent from the floor.
