Harvard and Yale’s big men dominated in this weekend’s Ancient Eight action. So rather than recognize just one player, both Crimson junior co-captain Keith Wright and Bulldog junior center Greg Mangano were selected as Ivy League Co-Players of the Week.
As has become routine, Wright had another big weekend for Harvard, scoring 39 points and grabbing 19 boards over two games. While the Leverett House resident played well against Yale, he took his game to a new level the following night against Brown. Along with his five blocks, a career high, Wright led all players with 22 points and 14 rebounds. With his ninth double-double of the season, the Harvard center helped key a big comeback against the Bears.
Wright’s Yale counterpart didn’t have a shabby weekend either. Despite playing only 24 minutes on Friday at Harvard, the 6’10” center scored 19 and, more impressively, was 3-4 from beyond the arc. But like Wright, Mangano’s big game came Saturday night, when he scored a career-high 30 points to lift his Bulldogs to a 69-60 win over Dartmouth.
The two co-players of the week will meet again on Feb. 26, when the Crimson travel south to face off against the Bulldogs at the John J. Lee Amphitheater in New Haven.
