Hill's Double-Double Paces Women's Basketball Over Cornell, 62-54
January 25, 2025 | Women's Basketball
ITHACA – Parker Hill had a career-high 20 points and 12 rebounds as the Princeton Women's Basketball Team held off the Cornell Big Red, 62-54, at Newman Arena on Saturday afternoon.
The Tigers started off with 10 of the first 12 points of the game before settling with a 20-9 lead after the first quarter. Princeton shot 50 percent during that stretch and made all six free throws.
Cornell registered a 10-0 sprint to cut its deficit to four, 23-19, before back-to-back treys from Skye Belker and Ashley Chea. The Tigers went into halftime with a 29-22 lead.
Head coach Carla Berube's team led by as many as 12 in the third stanza before holding a 48-38 advantage as the fourth quarter got started.
The Big Red did not go away, getting with four, but Belker hit a baseline jumper with 1:55 to go. After Cornell answered, the Tigers found Hill for this bucket …
Cornell went 1-of-5 from the floor the rest of the way while Princeton hit four from the charity stripe to secure the victory.
Belker and Fadima Tall registered 12 points each for the Tigers. Princeton improves to 13-5 overall and 4-1 in the Ivy League while Cornell dropped to 4-14 and 0-5 in the conference. Berube's unit goes back on the road next week to take on Yale (Jan. 31, 6 p.m.) and Brown (Feb. 1, 5 p.m.).
