Cunningham Registers Her 1,000th Career Point In Impressive Win Over Columbia
February 04, 2023 | Women's Basketball
NEW YORK – The Women's Basketball Team held the Columbia Lions to a season-low in points with a 74-56 decision at Levien Gymnasium.
Â
The Lions came into the weekend averaging 81.8 points per contest, good for 11th highest in the NCAA. Princeton has held Columbia to its two lowest scoring outputs this year.
Â
Princeton registered 10 of the first 13 points, but Columbia rebounded to get within one, 12-11 with 2:37 to go in the first quarter. The Tigers countered with nine straight to end the frame, taking a 21-11 lead.
Â
Head coach Carla Berube's team led by as many as 16 before taking a 36-21 lead into halftime. It was a balanced attack for the Tigers with five different players scoring at least six points in the half.
Â
The road squad stretched its advantage to 21, but the Lions went on a 15-4 sprint to get within 10 before Kaitlyn Chen hit the final shot of the third stanza.
Â
Columbia never got closer in the fourth quarter.
Â
The Tigers had four players in double figures led by Chen's 16 points. Julia Cunningham had 15 points, surpassing 1,000 career points during the game on this bucket …
Cunningham is now the 27th Princeton Tiger to reach the 1,000-point milestone. Madison St. Rose (14) and Grace Stone (13) were also in double figures for Princeton. Ellie Mitchell was one point shy of a double-double with nine points and 17 rebounds in the win.
Â
Princeton is now 16-5 overall and 7-2 in the Ivy League while Columbia falls to 18-4 this season and 7-2 in conference action. The Tigers welcome Dartmouth to Jadwin Gym for National Girls and Women In Sports Day along with a Black History Month Celebration next Saturday (Feb. 11). Tip-off is set for 1 p.m.
