– Baumann led Columbia in scoring and tied for game high-scoring honors with 17 points in 18 minutes on 7-for-8 shooting.

– Goffredo was the high point man for Harvard with 17, but he shot just 5 of 14 overall and 3 of 9 from three on the evening.

– Unger took over Brian Cusworth’s starting job in the middle for the Crimson and enjoyed a nice shooting game, finishing with 16 points and hitting on six of nine from the field.

– Ben Nwachukwu had another quiet game with just seven points, five rebounds, and four turnovers, but the Columbia center did do a nice job of kicking it out to the perimeter for open three-pointers when Harvard collapsed on him.

– Defensive rebounding was problematic for both teams, as Columbia pulled down 42.9 percent of its own misses, while Harvard wasn’t far behind at 38.7 percent. However, the Lions owned a 17-7 edge in second-chance points.

– Harvard only committed three more turnovers (17) than Columbia (14), but the Lions outscored the Crimson 17-7 in points off turnovers.

– Four Harvard freshmen — Alek Blankenau, Darryl Finkton, Pat Magnarelli, and Ndubuisi Okereke — scored their first collegiate points. The highly regarded Magnarelli saw his first action of the season, logging 17 minutes, finishing with four points and four rebounds.

– Columbia will head up to Hanover to face Dartmouth (7-11, 2-3 Ivy) in a battle of 2-3 Ivy teams on Saturday, February 3, at 7:00 pm ET, while red-hot Cornell (11-8, 4-1 Ivy) comes calling on Harvard.
