ITHACA, N.Y. -- Here are some notes from this past weekend's home split with Yale (81-80 double overtime loss) and Brown (63-45 win).

Yale Game

In two games against Yale and it's league-leading scoring defense and field goal percentage defense unit, the Big Red shot .482 (53-of-110) overall and .444 (20-of-45) from 3-point range while scoring 75.5 points.
Junior Terrance McBride scored a career-high 27 points vs. Yale, including 17 in the two overtime sessions — a mark that would have matched his previous career high (reached three times).
McBride is the first Cornell player in school history to post a game with at least 27 points, five rebounds, five assists, a blocked shot and a steal.
Freshman Marcus Filien set career highs with eight points, five rebounds and three steals.
Junior Bryan Knapp posted personal bests of 13 points, four assists and two steals.
Knapp's 49 minutes played were the most by a Cornell player since Matt Morgan played 51 in a triple overtime win over Princeton in 2018.
Filien, Dolan, Knapp and McBride all played a career high in minutes played.

Bryan Knapp scored a career high 17 points, his second straight night raising that mark.
Marcus Filien had a career best of nine rebounds, the most by a Big Red freshman since David Onuorah twice reached that mark in the 2013-14 campaign.
Cornell's 6-of-9 effort from 3-point range is the first time the Big Red made two-third of its 3-point attempts with less than 10 shots beyond the arc since making 6-of-8 vs. Clarkson in December 1992.
Kobe Dickson joined teammate Josh Warren (14 points, 10 rebounds, five assist, two blocks vs. NJIT) as the 26th player in school history to have a game with at least 10 points, eight rebounds, two assists and two blocked shots in a contest.
The Big Red limited an Ivy League opponent to .259 shooting or worse for the first time since Harvard hit on .254 from the floor in a 57-49 victory at Newman Arena.
The .174 shooting from beyond the 3-point arc (4-of-23) for Brown was the worst by a Big Red opponent with at least 20 attempts since Lehigh connected on just 3-of-24 (.125) shots in an 81-79 Cornell victory in December of 2011.
