Women's Basketball's Defense Leads To Dominating Win Over Yale, 79-30
January 28, 2023 | Women's Basketball
PRINCETON – The Women's Basketball Team's defense shined as it allowed just 11 baskets overall in a 79-30 victory over the Yale Bulldogs at Jadwin Gym on Saturday afternoon.
Â
Yale's 30 points is the lowest total by a Princeton opponent since Lafayette registered 27 on December 7th, 2016 (65-27 decision). The Tigers gave up under 10 points in three quarters while scoring at least 20 points over the final three stanzas.
Â
The score was tied at 6-all, but Princeton countered with seven of the next eight and led 14-9 after 10 minutes.
Â
Yale went over six minutes during the second quarter without scoring as Princeton secured a 12-0 run. The home unit eventually went into the locker room with a 36-13 lead. During the second stanza, the Tigers gave up two buckets to Yale while shooting 8-of-13 from the floor (61.5 percent).
Â
The Bulldogs never got within 24 in the second half.
Â
Madison St. Rose led all scorers with 17 points, adding two rebounds. She has five 15+ point outings in her last six games. Kaitlyn Chen snagged 11 points, six helpers and was a +46 in 30 minutes of playing time. Ellie Mitchell grabbed 12 boards while Chet Nweke had a career-high 10 points in the victory.
Â
Princeton is now 14-5 overall and 5-2 in the Ivy League while Yale dropped to 10-10 this season and 4-3 in conference action. The Tigers head on the road to Cornell next Friday (Feb. 3, 6 p.m.) and Columbia next Saturday (Feb. 4, 4 p.m.).
