In the Ivy League semifinals, Brown beats Princeton 90-81, becoming the first #4 seed to defeat a #1 seed in Ivy Madness. UMass Lowell leads Vermont 32-29 at halftime. Brown will face Yale for the Ivy League title.
BROWN HAS THE LEAD! Kino Lilly and Malachi Ndur have sparked a 9-3 run to put the Bears in front for the first time today, and James Jones will have a word with 8:15 to go. Brown 46, Yale 44. #IvyHoops
Brown jumps ahead of Yale, 46-44, with 8:22 left. All momentum with the Bears.
Huge answer by John Poulakidas to get the lead back up to four after Brown pulled within one. #IvyHoops #ThisIsYale
Yale’s lead is up to six at the U16, 35-29 the score. Brown has threatened, but has yet to swing the pendulum back its way. #IvyHoops #ThisIsYale
No. 4 Brown hanging with No. 2 Yale, down 35-29 with 15:11 remaining. Bears looking for their first trip to March Madness since 1986.
March Madness….selection of 68 starts at 6pm today…68 for women/68 for men …..brackets ready
Yale stands 20 minutes from its third Ivy League championship in four seasons (don’t forget, 2020 and 2021 were wiped out due to COVID), holding Brown under 30 percent from the floor and leading by a 26-22 margin. #IvyHoops #ThisIsYale
Half in the @IvyLeague : @YaleMBasketball 26, @BrownU_MBB 22 If Brown wins, they would go to the Dance with a 14-17 record Yale would be 22-9 with a win and could win a round or two. https://t.co/ZPNZ4qbneF
The men's NCAA Tournament bracket will be revealed at 6 p.m. ET. First, there are five more conference championship games to be played. Follow along for live updates throughout the day, starting with Yale vs Brown for the title at #IvyMadness ⤵️
Yale is still leading with 10:44 remaining in the opening stanza, 11-8. James Jones’ defense, always beautiful to watch if you’re a basketball purist, is on another level today. Brown has missed 10 of 13, and outside of a deep three, Lilly hasn’t done much. #IvyHoops #ThisIsYale
Yale has a 4-3 lead through the first 4:03. Much like UConn and Marquette last night, neither team is necessarily crisp offensively…each side has missed four of its first five shots. Wolf and Mahoney have the scoring for the Bulldogs in the early going. #IvyHoops #ThisIsYale
Off and running on 120th and Broadway, where Brown looks for an improbably conference title after starting 6-17. Even after the Princeton upset, today’s crowd is still exceptionally solid. No score with a minute gone by. #IvyHoops https://t.co/je6ybE8VJI
