I think this is actually the only basketball coverage that matters.
On Friday, February 9, I attended Columbia Women’s Basketball’s (16-5, 7-1 Ivy) home game against Brown (13-8, 4-4 Ivy). We won. Upon further reflection, and sincere consultation with many sports reporters in the field, we have come to the conclusion that my notes speak for themselves. The TLDR: we won 90-75. The spirit band slays. Go women.
First Quarter:
- Abbey Hsuuuuu (CC ’24) gets the first basket!!!
- AND THE NEXT ONE AND IRS A 3
- Kitty (CC ’25) is back in her iconic hairstyle!!! and Fliss (CC ’27) has the same!! I’m going to implode
- I’ve returned a quarter later to let u know that was misinformation and it’s just kitty
- Brown’s uniforms are brown that’s funny
- I wonder what the budget is for this team they always get so much merch and go so many places
- OK ABBEY REBOUND THAT AT. she flew through the air
- That was a beautiful Nicole (BC ’24) 3 pointer WOW
- By the first time out, Columbia is up 11 to 6
- The fact that the team gets chairs for the time outs is so silly
- Wait one of the brown players has the coolest undercut
- CECELIA (CC ’25) BEAUTIFIL THREWE POINTER WITH ONE SEXONDeft
