From the opening whistle, however, the only thing big about Saturday's game was the ease of Cornell's victory.
Scoring late in the second quarter to go up 7-1, the Big Red established a commanding lead heading into halftime.
Dartmouth would mount a small comeback early in the third quarter with a pair of goals to cut the lead to 8-4.
Cornell responded quickly with four goals in under two minutes to extinguish any hope of a comeback.
Brown 9, Penn 7
Freshman Jon Thompson picked up a hat trick for the Bears, and junior Jimmy Mormile added a pair in the victory.
Tied 1-1 after the first quarter, the Bears went on a 3-0 scoring run to give Brown a 4-1 lead with 5:33 remaining in the half.
