Columbia 62, Harvard 56
Against Albany back in January, Harvard led 20-1 ten minutes into the game, then found itself down 41-34 midway through the second half, before coming back to win.
Apparently the Crimson didn't learn much from that game.
"When we go up and annihilate someone early, we relax," Delaney-Smith said.
Shawnee Pickney was the first player to catch fire for the Lions, scoring nine points on a 21-8 run that wiped out a 9-0 Crimson lead.
Then in the second half, while Pickney struggled, shooting 0-of-5 from the floor, Patricia Kern and Catherine Tubridy picked up the slack.
With the Lions holding a 31-30 lead, Tubridy drained two treys from the top of the key, and then Kern hit a wide open three-pointer from the left corner. With 11:10 left, Columbia led 40-30.
