After the always tough swing through the Empire State Dartmouth's reward is Penn-Princeton. I saw their game last night and Penn is officially back. Princeton took it on the nose but the Tigers have more athleticism than the old days. The Green has been able to pick off one or the other at home on occasion in recent years. How do you see the weekend playing out?

With last night’s win, Dartmouth actually moved ahead of Cornell in Pomeroy. And at 268, Dartmouth is actually now considerably ahead of last year (when they finished 305). I know the close losses stink, but I actually think there are arguments that the ship is moving forward.

I agree that we are moving forward. There is more consistent play. Good rebounding limiting Princeton to one shot and good free throw shooting helped. I would have thought that a key to a win last would have been good 3 point shooting. We were 35% but Princeton was 25%. Overall for a young team with some losses of key players things are looking up. Looking forward to this weekend.
