...league title, Columbia, who enters the weekend winless through four Ivy matchups, seems like a team headed for the opposite fate. After recording only two conference victories a year ago, wins will be hard to come by for the Lions once again in 2007. Senior guard Megan Griffith is the team’s lone player in double figures this season at 14.1 points per game, and Columbia will need Griffith’s teammates step up if they hope to compete against Harvard or any other Ancient Eight contender...

The bright spot is senior guard Megan Griffith (15.2 ppg), second team All-Ivy in 2006. The downside? Everything else. Guard Michele Gage (11.4 ppg) is out all year with an injury, and Columbia was outrebounded by 12 boards a game last season.Player to Watch: Brittney CarforaCarfora dropped 16 on Harvard, going 4-for-6 from three...
