IVY PLAYER OF THE
WEEK
Hana Peljto, Harvard,
Junior, Forward, Brooklyn Park,
Minn.
The reigning Ivy League
Player of the Year helped the Crimson to a 1-1 week, earning
a 79-70 win over Northeastern before falling to No. 12
Minnesota. She posted her third double-double of the season
with 24 points and 11 rebounds against the Huskies, then had
23 points, nine rebounds and three steals in the loss to the
Golden Gophers. For the season, she is leading the team in
scoring (22.7 ppg) and rebounding (10.0 rpg), both good for
second in the League.
IVY ROOKIE OF THE WEEK
Jean Cullen, Dartmouth, Guard, Janesville,
Wis.
Cullen was fantastic,
pumping in a career-high 33 points on 10-for-14 shooting,
including going seven-for-11 from behind the arc in a 86-72
win over Hartford. Cullen, who had a previous high of 21
points, was six-for-six from the line and added seven
rebounds to her totals. Her seven three-pointers fell one
shy of the school record held by Courtney Banghart, set on
March 7, 2000 against
Harvard.
IVY HONOR ROLL
Tanara Golston, Brown, Junior, Guard, Skokie, Ill.
Golston was named to the
Brown Classic All-Tournament team after netting 18 points in
a 71-50 win over Lafayette, and 13 points in the
Championship game. Earlier in the week Golston contributed
six points, six boards and three assists in a 69-62 overtime
loss to in-state rival
URI.
Edytte Key, Columbia, Soph., Forward, Snoqualmie,
Wash.
Key blocked a shot with
less then a minute to play in regulation gave the Lions a
62-61 win over Lehigh. She also had 13 points to go with her
7 rebounds, two blocks, an assist and steal. Against Army,
the center had a season-high tying 14 points and a team best
seven boards.
Lynell Davis, Cornell, Senior, Forward, Palatine, Ill.
Davis was named to the
All-Tournament team after scoring 31 points over the weekend
and shot .519 from the floor to help the Big Red finish
second in the Cornell Classic. She scored a game-high 19
points in the championship game against Colgate and added a
team-high nine rebounds.
Katharine Hanks, Dartmouth, Senior, Forward, Bloomfield,
Mich.
Hanks had another
outstanding performance in the 86-72 win over Hartford. She
totaled 23 points on nine-for-15 shooting and added 13
rebounds, to notch her League-leading fourth
double-double.
Karen Habrukowich, Penn, Sophomore, Guard, Newtown,
Pa.
Habrukowich averaged
just under 11 points per game in the Quakers three contests,
including two double figure efforts. She tallied 14 points
against Cal and 12 against Evansville in the Red and Blue's
two games at the Oakland Tribune Classic. Against the Purple
Aces she knocked down a season-high four three
pointers.
Allison Cahill, Princeton, Senior, Guard, Uxbridge,
Mass.
Cahill scored 28 points
in Princeton's 97-69 win over Centenary. She finished
10-of-14 from the field, 3-of-4 from three-point range and
5-of-5 from the free throw line. Cahill chipped in with six
points against Sacred Heart, making both of her free throws
to stay perfect on the week.
Lindsay Page, Yale, Sophomore, Forward, Mulkiteo,
Wash.
Page led the team in
scoring in both of the games at the Roger L. White
Tournament. She averaged 10.5 points and 7.0 rebounds a game
during the tournament, and for the season, she is second on
the team in scoring (10.7 ppg) and first in rebounding (6.4
rpg).
