In lieu of varsity athletic contests while the College engages in distance learning, Haverford Athletics has dug into the archives. Our "Fords Flashback" will be profiling instant classic games from recent history.
February 22, 2019
Women's basketball will enter the upcoming 2020-21 season as two-time defending Centennial Conference Champions, having won the program's second and third titles during the 2019 and 2020 seasons. Although the Fords cruised to the CC title with a 62-40 victory over Gettysburg in the championship game, Haverford was faced with a battle down to the wire in its semifinal matchup with Johns Hopkins. In a game that featured 12 lead changes, it was Julianna Clark's jumper on Haverford's final possession of the contest that ultimately lifted the Fords to a 43-41 win. Haverford's signature lockdown defense was on display throughout the contest as the Fords held a Blue Jays squad that was receiving votes in the national polls to just 25 percent shooting on the afternoon.
