Cornell is heavily favored to win at home here.
Columbia Lions
Columbia has plummeted to the floor of the Ivy League standings this season. They come into New York losers of their last six games.
Ike Nweke’s return has truly been the lone bright spot for the Lions this season. The 6’7 senior followed up a season-high 22-points against Princeton by posting a 21/15 line in their conference win over Penn.
Nweke leads the team in scoring (15.9) and (6.3) but he’s only played in ten games.
Sophomore big Liam Murphy joins him in the frontcourt, and he’s coming off of his first double-double of the season after playing all 40 minutes against Princeton.
Geronimo Rubio De La Rosa has come in and played a big role early as a freshman. The 6’2 has been the Lions most consistent player, and he’s posting solid averages of 12.7 ppg, 3.9 rpg, and 3.2 apg on a team-leading 34.2 mpg.
Patrick Harding impressively grabbed 21 rebounds in the win over Penn, and he leads the team with 8.4 rpg.
Cornell Big Red
Cornell caught a big of fire to close the month of January, defeating Harvard, Brown, and Princeton three weekends in a row. The Big Red loss to Penn last time out, but they should be able to respond here.
Statistically, Cornell possess one of the stronger offenses in the country, scoring 80.9 ppg which is good for 13th in the nation.
Jordan Jones return to the lineup in late January has been clutch. The 6’5 forward leads the team in scoring (11.3), and he scored 18 points in the upset win over Harvard.
Chris Manon has scored 20+ in back-to-back games, including 22 points in the win over Princeton.
Dean Noll has been pretty effective here in his junior season, posting solid averages of 9.6 ppg, 3..3 rpg, and a team-leading 2.7 apg.
Kobe Dickson leads the team with 5.1 rpg.
