Complete Women's Basketball Weekly Release in pdf format
PRINCETON, N.J. -- Princeton (23-4, 12-1)
wrapped up its second consecutive outright Ivy League title last
week with home wins over Dartmouth and Harvard. The League title
also gave the Tigers the NCAA automatic bid.
Yale (14-14, 10-4) wrapped up its regular season with a split at
home, but was able to secure at least a tie for second place in the
Ivy standings, and will earn the League’s automatic WNIT
bid.
Four Ivy squads still have one game remaining on their
regular-season slate. On Tuesday, Princeton travels to Penn and
Harvard travels to Dartmouth as the two sets of travel partners
wrap up their home-and-home series.
PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Devona Allgood (Huntersville, N.C.) led Princeton
to a 2-0 weekend to earn its second consecutive outright Ivy League
championship and the League’s automatic bid to the NCAA
Tournament. Allgood averaged 13.5 points, 11.5 rebounds, four
blocks, two assists and one steal against Dartmouth and Harvard,
recording back-to-back double-doubles. Against Dartmouth, Allgood
scored the game’s first four points and finished with a
double-double of 15 points on 6-for-9 shooting and 13 rebounds. She
also recorded two assists and two blocks. The following night
Allgood scored 12 points and 10 rebounds in the most important game
for the Tigers this season as Princeton defeated Harvard to clinch
the league title outright and punched its ticket to the tournament.
She matched her career-high in blocks with six and had two assists
and two steals.
