Her performance in this game continued a pattern she established straight from the get-go.
Lippert started in the team’s exhibition games and the season-opener last Saturday against Boston College. In the nail-biting victory for the Crimson, she contributed 14 points and four rebounds.
“Victoria is just flat-out a player, in every regard,” Delaney-Smith said. “She’s serious about her basketball, she’s very intense, she’s very competitive, and she’s very talented.”
While Lippert was timid in pointing out her own achievements last night, she had no problem making clear Harvard’s goals for the season.
“This year we’re going for title 12,” the freshman said after last night’s win. “I think that’s definitely achievable and we’re going to work really hard to continue coming together as a unit in order to accomplish that.”
If her early play is any indication, Lippert is destined to be a key part of any of the Crimson’s future success this season.
