The Crimson had 23 team assists as to just 13 for the Mountaineers.

Egelhoff just missed a double-double with nine points and a career-high 11 rebounds.

"Honestly, I think I just got lucky," Egelhoff said. "The ball bounced to my area a lot."

Also scoring in double figures for the Crimson was junior center Melissa Johnson, who had 11 points for the game.

The Harvard defense was tough to beat all day. The Crimson made it especially difficult for Mountaineer freshman Lauren Kokotajlo, who shot a mere 1-of-11 from the field, including 0-of-4 from the three-point line, despite being the team's top three-point shooter going into the game.
