Looks like Penn made Ka'Ron Barnes a complete non-factor. Also, we managed to lose by 15 despite outrebounding Penn and having a better FG Pct. They just smoked us from 3-point range.

Penn 84, Cornell 69
      PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Jeff Schiffner scored 24 points, Ibrahim
Jaaber scored 14 of his 17 points in the second half, and Penn used
scoring outbursts in each half to defeat Cornell 84-69 Friday
night.
      Charlie Copp added 14 points for Penn (14-9, 7-3 Ivy), and held
Ka'Ron Barnes, the Ivy League's leading scorer (21 points per game)
to just 10 points.
      Eric Taylor had 17 points and Lenny Collins 13 for Cornell
(11-13, 6-5).
      Cornell used an 11-2 run at the start of the second half to take
a 37-36 lead, and a 3-point shot by Cody Toppert gave Cornell a
44-43 edge with 13:23 remaining.
      Steve Danley then made a 3-point play, igniting a 17-1 Penn
spurt capped by a 3-point play by Copp to give Penn a 60-45
advantage.
      A layup by Taylor helped Cornell to rally to within 68-62 with
4:24 to go, but Jaaber scored four straight points to seal the
victory.
      Cornell had a 25-19 lead midway through the first half, but
Schiffner scored 13 points during a 15-1 Penn run and the Quakers
took a 34-26 halftime lead.
      The game was Cornell's 12th straight loss to Penn.

Well, we're alive mathematically to still share the Ivy title. But we need to win our last 3 games (it's possible) and Princeton has to lose their last 4 (only slightly more likely than me winning the lottery).
