Princeton's Senior Captains Lead The Way In Victory Over Penn
January 11, 2020 | Women's Basketball
PHILADELPHIA – An 18-4 run to start the second half pushed the Princeton Tigers by the Penn Quakers at the Palestra, 75-55, on Saturday afternoon.
Â
The Tigers' senior captains, Bella Alarie and Taylor Baur, combined for 40 points and 24 rebounds as they each had a double-double. Alarie's 25 points and 11 caroms give her 38 career double-doubles. She has collected a double-double in 41 percent of her career contests. Baur's 15 points are a career-high while her 13 boards match her personal-best. Abby Meyers added 14 points off the bench in the win.
Â
In front by three at the intermission, the Tigers roared out to a 17-point lead during that third quarter run before leading by 12 into the fourth frame. Another 17-8 sprint to begin the final 10 minutes put the game out of reach for Princeton as it took home its first Ivy victory of the season.
Â
Head coach Carla Berube's squad snagged the first three baskets and ran off 10 of the first 12 points of the contest. The Quakers rebounded to take a brief 13-12 advantage, but Baur had an And-1 on the next possession. Maggie Connolly's three-pointer on the final play of the stanza put Princeton ahead, 18-16. Â
Â
The second quarter was a close affair as the Tigers jumped in front by seven, but closed the first half with a 33-30 advantage. In the first 20 minutes, Princeton grabbed eight offensive rebounds which led to 10 second chance tallies.
Â
Penn's Kayla Padilla led all scorers with 27 points. The Tigers outrebounded the Quakers 44-25, securing 26 second chance points. Princeton also sank 18 free throws while Penn took just 11 total.
Â
Today's victory extends the No. 23 Princeton Tigers' winning streak to nine. They are 13-1 overall and 1-0 in the Ivy League. Penn falls to 10-2 this season and 0-1 in the conference.
