I'm going to be updating sporadically, because my phone is getting low on charge. We'll see if they can get their ball movement problems corrected here. Princeton disposed of Yale pretty easily in the first game (the Yale band went through a lot of suffering today.) The clocks on the baskets are not working for some reason, so they've brought spares in and put them on the floor.

The game is also on ESPN3.
Penn getting absolutely stymied so far on the offensive end.

Ugly 1st Q. Not shoot well and neith neither Parker mor Nwokedi looking confident inside. Fortunately, Harvard hasn't shot well either, but still, not good so far.

Penn up 23-18 at the half.
Neither team shooting it well. Defense giving both teams a lot of problems, inside and out.

Yeah, Princeton's really got to be licking their chops watching this one. Somebody needs to start lighting it up so that the other half of the offense can get open.

Katie Benzan opens up with two NBA caliber 3s.
And then hits another.

29-29 with 4 minutes to go in the 3rd. Michelle N. to the line to shoot 2 when we return from the TV timeout.
All Penn baskets in the 3rd have come from in close.

Some beautiful interior passing by the Penn women there, leading to an "and 1" opportunity for Parker (missed).
Looked like the Penn men out there.

They do a great job again to Parker, this time for 2 shots.
Maybe they've finally solved the puzzle.
37-35 Penn through 3.

37-35 Penn after 3. Still not shooting well from outside, but Nwokedi and Parker have finally reestablished their rapport inside, making some nice passes for buckets. Here we go!

Boehm gets a key offensive board off a missed Benzan 3, and Harvard converts. 48-45 with 3:14 to play, Penn ball after the time out.

Right off the timeout, Ross nails a 3 from the top of the key.
Skinner with a non called glass 3, comes right back.

Princess misses inside, Benzan 3 ties it up with 1:30 to play.
Ross AGAIN with a 3.
Penn needs to be better on the defensive boards--it has cost them a few times this quarter.
