Women’s basketball gets expert advice — and they win
Harvard women’s basketball continued its impressive run Friday by overcoming a feisty Cornell squad in the final minutes 62-59, bringing in its 15th consecutive win of the season. Guard Sydney Skinner ’19 scored a career high 23 points, while teammate Taylor Rooks ’18 tallied 13 points, six rebounds, and two steals. Forward Jeannie Boehm ’20 pulled down 13 rebounds, while both she and Madeline Raster ’19 led the team in assists with four apiece. With solid contributions from multiple players, the victory was a complete team effort. To augment the win, honorary coaches Harvard President Drew Faust, Danoff Dean of Harvard College Rakesh Khurana and his wife, Stephanie Khurana, the Faculty Deans for Cabot House, got bench seats for a close-up view.
