Last Saturday, Columbia University women’s basketball proved that with vision and commitment, history can be made. Sometimes victory is a matter of believing you can win, and the Lions proved just that.
Sometimes victory is a matter of believing you can win, and the Lions proved just that. Trailing by as much as 12 points, Columbia came back, tying the game and sending it into overtime. In those final 5 minutes, the players asserted their dominance over a very determined and aggressive Cornell University team, pulling away for a 69–64 victory.
Instead, the Lions proved they know what it takes to win, doing so in front of a sold-out crowd of 2,602—quite the difference from the audience at games when Griffith took over the program seven years ago. That sold-out crowd got to witness the program’s first Ivy League Championship in its 37-year history. Cutting down the net is not a familiar sight on Schiller Court at Levien Gymnasium, so the crowd savored the experience.
Kennedy, Madison Hardy, and Hannah Pratt have played different roles at different times, but have always contributed to the team’s good energy and focus. Guard Carly Rivera has been a spark that has changed the momentum in many games.
