...committed only five while holding the Big Green to just 33.3 percent shooting from the field. Two bench players helped out when senior forward Christiana Lackner found herself on the bench with four fouls for most of the second half. Moretzsohn scored a career-high 12 points, including back-to-back layups from the right block with under two minutes remaining. Fellow sophomore Liz Tindal, another post weapon in Delaney-Smith’s arsenal, provided a spark with a career-high 11 points and two key long-range buckets down the stretch. Her basket from...
...offense with a 45.0 percent clip on the night, but untimely breakdowns and a deafening pro-Wisconsin crowd made for a long night on the defensive end.

The Crimson, incidentally, has never won an Ivy League title...
...entered overtime against New Hampshire having hit just one of his last 12 three-point attempts, but knocked down a huge trey with a minute to play that helped Harvard escape with the victory. Building upon that make, in the last two games Goffredo has reasserted himself by posting back-to-back season-highs in points, scoring 23 in Harvard’s win at Colgate and pouring in 27 on Saturday in the Crimson’s 87-79 win over LIU in Brooklyn. “As a shooter you can’t worry about...
