For the second night in a row, the Lions watched as an early lead slowly turned into a second half deficit. Columbia was not interested in repeating Princeton’s methodical comeback on Friday night, and the next night in Philadelphia, it made sure Penn paid the price for allowing its visitors to jump out to a 14-5 advantage. And so after a tough 55-45 loss to Princeton, the Light Blue came away with a 66-62 win as a reward after two nights of gritty play.

Noruwa Agho, Columbia’s leading scorer and breakout star, scored 25 of his 30 points unassisted against Yale. Against Brown over half of his points—10 of 18—were assisted. As head coach Joe Jones’ squad has learned this year, not only must Agho turn in an impressive score line for the Light Blue to be successful, but his points must come from within the offense.
