UPDATED SPECTATOR POLICY
As of February 9, the spectator policy has been updated to allow people from outside of the college community at events.

THIS WEEKEND
Dartmouth women's basketball will play its second to last home game on Saturday when it hosts Princeton at 2 p.m.

LAST TIME OUT
The Big Green were defeated by the Brown Bears, 70-56, at the Pizzitola Sports Center on Tuesday.
· Allie Harland had a career-high 14 points in the loss. She went 5-7 (.714) in field goals and 4-5 (.800) in treys, tying her personal record from 2020.
· Doreen Ariik had her second double-double in a row, ending up with 10 points and a career-best 12 rebounds.
· The first quarter was kept very close and Brown had a two-point advantage heading to the second (12-10).
· Treys by Harland and Mekkena Boyd helped Dartmouth's cause, but a 10-6 Bear run gave the home team more control. The game was kept within reach until nine straight Brown points put some distance between the teams (36-20).
· After the Bears continued to pull ahead, Harland's second 3-pointer of the third quarter and a bucket by Jimena Abejon got the Big Green back within 17 points (55-38).
· Even though Dartmouth won the fourth, Brown managed to hold on for the win (70-56). The Green again turned in a stellar performance on the boards, outrebounding the Bears, 43-37, while collecting 20 offensive rebounds.

SCOUTING THE TIGERS
Since meeting Dartmouth at Jadwin Gymnasium Princeton has won its last three games to improve to 8-0 in Ivy League play. Having been tied for first in the conference with Columbia for the first six weeks of the season, the Tigers easily defeated the Lions, 57-39, to now sit alone at the top.

LAST TIME AGAINST PRINCETON
On Jan. 22, the Big Green fell to the Tigers, 78-35. Mia Curtis had a career-high 20 points in the loss. She went 6-9 (.667) in 3-pointers and 7-15 (.467) in field goals. Ariik had 10 rebounds (which was a career-best until the game at Brown on Tuesday).

LEADING THE WAY
Even though she didn't play over the weekend, Mia Curtis is still leading the team with 136 points, but Carrington Washburn and Mekkena Boyd are starting to close in with 118 points each.

Washburn, Rosie Jennings and Harland have played all 21 games, while Boyd has started all 20 of the contests she has appeared in. The sophomore from Williston, Vermont, also leads with 36 assists and 27 steals. Ariik leads with 115 total rebounds and is creeping her way into the Ivy League top 10.
