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.

Thought the gals had a good shot at beating Yale seeing as the Elis had lost 5 straight coming in.  The shooting woes they've had the last few years came back to haunt them outside of Clarke Jackson's effort. Despite their earlier win over Columbia the program needs a massive infusion of talent to compete with the top half of the league.
