Anna Ross has 8.0 points and 4.9 assists per game. Both teams are 19-1 when holding opponents under 60 points. The game will be on the Ivy League Network, https://www.ivyleaguenetwork.com/ivyleague/game/al... Live stats - http://stats.statbroadcast.com/broadcast/?id=21536... Like the Harvard game last Saturday, this should be an offensive struggle. If Penn can hold onto the ball and get some timely three points shooting, then they should be able to win on their home court. |

Penn up 67-57 with a bit under 5 to play. They started on about an 18-3 run, then went cold and let Albany go ahead midway through the 2nd, but since then have had enough offense to keep ahead of the Danes. Kinun already fouled out, and Nwokedi and Whitlatch have four.
