Harvard 24-4 (11-1c, 9-3a)
@ Yale 15-11 (9-3c, 8-2h)
Last Matchup: 2/28 @ Harvard
Yale won 74-67
-Harvard shot FG 39% that game, avg is 46.5%. Harvard shot 56% FT on 25 FTA that game, avg is 73.5%. Obviously well blow normal.
-Yale shot FG 51% that game, avg is 42%. Yale shot 82.8% FT that game on 29 FTA, avg is 68.9%. They also shot 60% 3P, avg is 33%. Obviously a lucky game for them.
- Harvard loss at Yale thus was a fluke, and not in-line averages for either team.
-Harvard clinches Ivy and ticket to NCAA with a win either tonight or at Brown tomorrow. Yale would have to win tonight and Brown win tomorrow. Motivation for Harvard is to clinch tonight, then rest up at Brown tomorrow in meaningless game. Yale cannot reasonably expect Brown to beat Harvard.
- no injury factors.
Penn 7-18 (4-7c, 1-10a)
@ Columbia 18-11 (7-5c, 12-2h)
Last Matchup: 2/8 @ Penn
Penn won 68-60
- no conf tourney in Ivy
- neither team in contention
- Penn roster now decimated
-revenge motivation for Columbia
- Penn hasn't won a road gm since 11/12
@ Monmouth, when they had a normal roster.
Princeton 17-8 (5-6c, 6-5a)
@ Cornell 2-24 (1-11, 2-9h)
Last Matchup: 2/8 @ Princeton
Princeton won 69-48
-Cornell has deep roster problems and has only won 2 games all season, one at Oberlin (a Div III team) and one vs Dartmouth.
- Princeton is 17-8 this year, but only 5-6 in conference play, which has stopped them from a shot at NCAA tournament.
Still, expect effort from the Tigers, as they do have a legitimate chance of gaining entry for postseason play in either the NIT or the CIB.
- Cornell may have a shot at winning their last game, tomorrow vs. Penn, who are also experiencing serious roster problems, and tomorrow's game is at Cornell, so tonight is a bit of a look-ahead.
