NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

03/05/2010 - Providence, RI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jon Jaques scored 20 points, going 6-of-8 from beyond the arc, and Cornell hit 20 shots from beyond the arc and clinched the Ivy League crown with a 95-76 victory over Brown.

Louis Dale, Ryan Wittman and Chris Wroblewski each hit four three-pointers with the trio scoring 18, 16 and 14 points, respectively, for the Big Red (26-4, 12-1 Ivy League), who sewed up their third consecutive berth in the NCAA Tournament.

Cornell tied an Ivy League record and set a school mark with the 20 made three-pointers, accomplishing the feat on just 30 attempts.

Jeff Foote also scored 14 for Cornell, which won its sixth in a row overall and beat the Bears for the eighth straight time.

This is Cornell's fourth Ivy League crown and fifth trip to the NCAA Tournament. Last year, the Big Red gained a No. 14 seed in the West Region and lost in the first round to Missouri.

Peter Sullivan had 23 points for the Bears (11-19, 5-8), who were swept in the season series by Cornell, also losing 65-54 on Feb. 6. Garrett Leffelman added 16 points in defeat.

It was a great start for Cornell, as Jaques nailed a pair of three-pointers and Wroblewski connected from long distance for a 9-0 lead for the visitors.

Brown battled back and grabbed a 25-24 edge on a three-pointer by Sullivan midway through the half, but Wroblewski responded with a three-ball.

Cornell managed to hold onto a 51-47 edge at the break and pulled away with a sizeable flurry early in the second half. A layup from Leffelman had Brown within 56-51, but Cornell responded with the next nine points, culminated by Dale's jumper with 16:15 remaining.

The Big Red continued to pull away, building the cushion to 20 at 81-61 on a Dale three-pointer inside nine minutes to go.

Cornell shot 57.4 percent from the field.
