Matt Morgan had a 4-point play to bring Cornell to within 42-33 before Dallier responded with a 3 and Yale led by double figures the rest of the way. Eric Monroe's 3-pointer with 8:51 left remaining put Yale up 75-45.
Morgan scored a game-high 28 points on 11-for-17 shooting for Cornell (7-21, 3-10).
