Princeton seemed intent on threatening another comeback, cutting the lead to 66-62 with 2:22 left. But a 3-pointer from Kelley, which ended a personal day-long scoring drought, effectively iced the victory.

"This game was tough emotionally," Ides said. "There was a little let-down from last night, but it helped us get pumped up again. We wanted to tell everyone that we're not going to lose again. Everyone's going to try to take us out; we've just got to keep it up."

It was a breakthrough game for Ides, who saw increased playing time due to Melissa Johnson's injury. Ides chalked up 12 points in 16 minutes of playing time. When the Tiger defense went outside to cover the Crimson 3-point shooters, Ides was often left open underneath, and she was able to go strong to the basket with consistency, hitting 5-of-6 shots on the day.

"It felt good to get out there," Ides said. "It's just fun playing basketball. That's all I'm here to do."

Ides also played a huge role defensively against the Tigers.

"Kate's very mobile," Delaney-Smith said. "She's a good perimeter player. She was able to stop the threes and the penetration."

Egelhoff also had a big game for the Crimson, scoring 14 points to make up for a relatively disappointing game against Penn.
