What to Know
Dartmouth has enjoyed a five-game homestand but will soon have to dust off their road jerseys. They and the Yale Bulldogs will face off in an Ivy battle at 2:00 p.m. ET on Monday at John J. Lee Amphitheater. The Big Green are strutting in with some offensive muscle as they’ve averaged 79.3 points per game this season.
Dartmouth is probably headed into the contest with a chip on their shoulder considering Princeton just ended the team’s three-game winning streak on Saturday. They were just a bucket shy of victory and fell 81-80 to the Tigers. The Big Green haven’t had much luck with the Tigers recently, as the team’s come up short the last two times they’ve met.
Meanwhile, Yale had already won two in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 24.5 points) and they went ahead and made it three on Saturday. They snuck past the Lions with a 92-88 victory. Having run the score up that high, both teams probably have some extra defensive drills coming up.
Yale smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 14 offensive rebounds. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they’ve now pulled down at least ten offensive rebounds in six consecutive matchups.

Rebounding is likely to be a big factor in this contest: Dartmouth has been smashing the glass this season, having averaged 36.7 rebounds per game.
