We've got another exciting Ivy matchup on schedule as the Dartmouth Big Green and the Cornell Big Red are set to tip at 7:00 p.m. ET on Friday at Newman Arena. Both worked hard to overcome the odds in their previous battles and are surely both feeling confident heading into this clash.

Dartmouth will bounce into Friday's match after (finally) beating Brown, who they had gone 2-8 against in their ten prior meetings. Dartmouth escaped with a win on Saturday against Brown by the margin of a single free throw, 84-83. Having run the score up that high, both teams probably have some extra defensive drills coming up.

Some high-performance offense is likely on the agenda as the two teams are some of the highest scoring teams in the league. Dartmouth hasn't had any problem running up the score this season, having averaged 78.8 points per game. However, it's not like Cornell (currently ranked fourth) struggles in that department as they've been averaging 86.4.
