HANOVER, N.H. — Dartmouth women's basketball fell behind a strong Harvard team 23-7 after the first quarter and couldn't respond, falling to the Crimson, 74-40 on Saturday afternoon inside Leede Arena. Late in the fourth quarter of her final collegiate game, Victoria Page finished a layup to give her 1,001 career points, marking a bright spot to end Saturday's game, and the season for the Big Green as she became the 20th player in program history to reach the milestone.
Â
Saturday was Senior Day, as Page, Doreen Ariik and head student manager Michaela Nsubuga prior to the game were all recognized for all they have meant to the program.
Â
Needing 22 to reach 1,000, Page finished the afternoon with 23, this against a Harvard team that stood second in the nation in scoring defense entering the weekend.
 Olivia Austin also enjoyed a strong effort with six points and nine boards.
Â
Harmoni Turner led Harvard with 33 points on 15-of-22 shooting, to go with six assists.
