In response to Tiger69
Big picture -- they are 8-0 and the Tigers have enjoyed the lead after the first 10 minutes of the remaining game for greater than 90% of the time. Only two blow outs but 10+ point leads in 5 other games with less than 10 minutes to go. If Tiger fans would be asked at the beginning of the Ivy season if they would be ecstatic at 8-0, the answer is easy. The reality is that there have been some tight moments, like any IL season, but somehow the veteran team has kept their composure and had the will to win unlike their non-conference game performance.
Even with a 2 game lead, nothing will come easy for the rest of the way with 4 games on the road -- far more challenging than the 1st 8 games. It is possible that they will finish 3-3 if they do not keep their focus. Yale is obviously a huge game next week if Weisz/Cook and others want to see a banner hanging at Jadwin after they graduate. As Cook stated last night, do not focus on the IL tournament just focus on the next game.
