Spiders No. 19

[SpiderLaw]

End of quarter 1 in Ivy Semis - Princeton up on Brown 23-7; hope Tigers get plenty of rest. Brown lost one of top players to injury near quarter end.

Princeton moves to finals of ivy. Harvard leads Columbia by 3 midway thru 3rd Quarter.

Wow, tied at 56, Harvard with the ball and they get fouled with 14 seconds left. Miss both foul shots, but get the offensive rebound off the second, but then can't convert and Columbia rebounds and gets a timeout with 3.3 seconds left. They can't get it into the frontcourt for a shot in time, and we're headed to OT.

Double wow. Columbia was down four in the waning seconds, hit a three with 6 seconds left to get within one. They fouled Harvard, who only made 1-of-2. Columbia shot for the tie at the buzzer, and one official waved it off as being too late while another called a foul. After review, it was ruled the shot and foul were just a hair too late. Harvard wins 67–65 in OT.

Princeton beat Harvard twice in the regular season, but one of them was by only three points.

I bet we break a record tomorrow for the most Spiders following a Harvard Princeton WBB game!
