“It was a disappointing finish for us, and despite accomplishing a lot of what we wanted to this year, our biggest goal was reaching the Ivy League Tournament.”
“The season wasn’t a disappointment, but our expectations were high, and we just didn’t meet them.”
Cornell takes on Yale and Brown this weekend who are breathing down the Red’s neck in search of the Ivy League Tournament.
“We wanted to make the game memorable for Nia and wanted her to remember that moment as a win not just for herself, but for the whole team.”
“Our entire class wants to leave behind the legacy of being the first Cornell women’s basketball team to compete in the Ivy League tournament.”
With its pair of wins at home, Cornell jumped up in the Ivy League standings and is tied with Brown in fourth at 5-5.
After losing a couple of Ivy league games last weekend, Cornell is looking to climb out of fifth place in the Ivy League with the Inaugural Ivy League tournament approaching.
“Everyone was very upset after the two losses this weekend, but we’re hoping that feeling fuels us to get wins against Harvard and Dartmouth this weekend.”
“Every game is competitive, which is what makes the Ivy League such a unique conference.”
The Red would have been eliminated from Ivy League Tournament contention had it not won a game over the weekend. The resilient women’s squad defeated Yale, 76-63.
