The visiting Rams made things tough by taking a 12-point lead with 6:42 to play, but that\'s when Mulvihill got going. She made the first, middle and last baskets during an 11-0 run, pulling the Scots within a single point on a trey from the wing. Cornell scored on its next three trips, but so did the Scots, with Laura Jahn making two jumpers and Mulvihill adding two free throws. Mulvihill then made a key steal at midcourt and, after being fouled on her layup attempt, swished two foul tosses for a 64-63 Monmouth advantage, its first lead since the score was 19-18.
Cornell\'s Tiffany Cowan scored underneath to put the Rams back in front, but Mulvihill was fouled for the third straight possession and completed a 6-for-6 stretch at the line to put the Scots up 66-65 with 50 seconds to play. After Cowan missed inside, Jahn made a short baseline jumper for a three-point lead with 15 seconds to go. The Rams had two final looks at a game-tying shot, but neither was close, and Ashley Yeast grabbed her game-high 18th rebound as the buzzer sounded.
Mulvihill scored all 13 of her points in the final 6:42 and added nine assists and six rebounds. Jahn had 18 points and nine rebounds and Yeast completed her double-double with a dozen points.
Cornell was led by Cowan, who scored 15 points.
