Did not see this one coming: Cornell over a good Columbia team 67-60. Credit to Emily Pape, Rachel Kaus, Clarke Jackson, and others. Certainly helped that Columbia's top scorer Riley Weiss went 1-14. Biggest win for the program in years. GBR!!

Just to give this victory a little perspective, Columbia was 24-7 last year and won a game in the NCAAs. It was the preseason pick to finish second this season behind Princeton, receiving three first-place votes. Cornell was picked seventh in the preseason poll. And Cornell's win came on the road. Hopefully, this will give Cornell some confidence after a lackluster non-league performance.
While the men's basketball team is struggling, the women's basketball team beat Dartmouth, 61-52, on the road for its second straight Ivy road win. Emily Pape scored her 1,000th career point during the game, which Cornell led from start to finish.
