In response to Okoro Dude
Completely agree. I started covering the league at the end of the Penn-Princeton duopoly, so pardon the lack of historical perspective in this take, but I was there in 2011 when Harvard clinched a share for the first time versus Penn and Princeton and the atmosphere at Lavietes was electric. But the playoff a week later was a completely different level.
2013 was just weird, standing around as Princeton got swept on the I-95 roadie.
That 2015 environment at The Palestra was insane as well.
I've been to some good live Ivy games, but none can compare to the 2011 and 2015 playoffs.
