Ivy champs! Huge congrats and thanks to Coach Henderson and the seniors for their tireless play and leadership that brought the title back to Princeton.
Regardless of how the 24-hour crapshoot at the Palestra plays out, they have played like champions during the Ivy Friday-Saturday grind, where they have gone 7-0 on the road with the last 5 of those wins by an average of almost 15 points.
Princeton swept the NY C-C road trip despite Weisz shooting 2-15 because this year's Tigers have a team that attacks you on defense and can put 5 players on the floor who can pass, cut, shoot and rebound. They are a lot of fun to watch and must be very difficult to prepare for given their resilience and flexibility.
I particularly enjoyed watching Amir Bell last night: 8 points, 4 assists, 4 steals and a coolness and confidence that pervades the "iron six" who once again played the vast majority of minutes. But I also agree with SRP, I love it when Brennan is not hesitant to take his shot and drains a three.
