Harvard will be more than confident when it faces Cornell tomorrow evening at the Alberding Field House.

In their previous contest, the Crimson led the whole way, walking all over the Big Red 81-69.

Junior Marie Watson dominates Cornell's game, leading the squad in both scoring and rebounding (104 ppg, 7 rpg). Co-Captain Liz Caracciolo has also contributed heftily in the Big Red effort.

But their presence will not be enough to pull off the upset.

Crimson Power

With each succeeding game, the Crimson has improved remarkably, both individually and as a collective unit. Player of the Week Erin Maher continues to lead the league in points scored with 18.0 ppg, while junior Debbie Flandermeyer is second in the Ivies in both scoring and rebounding (16.5 ppg, 8.8 rpg).

And freshman Nikole Cronk was named to the Rookie of the Week honor roll for her contributions in last weekend's triumphs over Penn and Princeton.

With plenty of weapons in her armory, Delaney Smith is confident of her team's ability to win. But she stresses the need to "expect the unexpected."

"Teams usually play at a higher level when they come against us because we're near the top of the league, and we have been at the top for six or seven years now," Delaney Smith said. "We have to watch out for these athletic teams that have nothing to lose."
