...rebounds and eight blocks—both career highs as well.“She has a post player’s body but can spring faster than any guard out there,” co-captain Emily Tay said of Markley.With the two teams trading leads down the stretch, Columbia (11-11, 4-4) put the pressure on the Crimson with some sharp shooting from behind the arc.First, Lions’ guard Sara Yee answered a Tay layup with a three. Then, after Berry hit a tough runner in the lane to give Harvard a 63-62 advantage, Columbia?...
