jibed
Was in accord
Jibed is the past tense of jibe, which means to be in accord or agreement: Her story didn't jibe with the evidence.
In sailing, to jibe is to shift a sail from one side to the other when running before the wind—a maneuver that can be jarring if done carelessly.
The agreement sense may derive from this nautical meaning, suggesting things moving in the same direction.
