“She’s come on so much stronger this year,” Monti said. “We knew that she was going to be their go-to when Katharine went down.”
One facet of the game that Delaney-Smith was very pleased with was the team’s rebounding. After picking up only eight offensive rebounds against Manhattan on Wednesday, the Crimson grabbed 21 against the Big Green and claimed the overall rebounding advantage, 44-30.
Peljto and Tubridy posted 11 rebounds each, and both had more offensive than defensive boards.
“[The rebounding] is what I think did it for us if I could pick one part of the game,” Delaney-Smith said.
Cserny and Monti chipped in 15 points apiece, while Monti also dished out 10 assists. Junior forward Sarah Johnson added 11 points for the Crimson.
Next Harvard will travel to Princeton on Friday and Penn on Saturday. The Tigers, last year’s Ivy cellar team, stunned the defending Ivy champion Quakers, 66-56, at the Palestra on Friday.
