Everything going right for Penn. Getting crazy bounces. All over the court. Tigers need to really buckled down over last 4 minutes or they will be starting the season in a real hole. Down 8 now.

Penn coming up with every single 50/50 ball, leading to endless additional possessions and second-chance points. I think they've gotten 7 or 8 loose balls in a row now.

MH has this same problem every Ivy slate. Guys just aren't fighting hard enough. Low energy almost every game.

Bell tries a circus move one on three and missed. Complete breakdown of discipline over the last 10 minutes. Bad game for Mitch. Terribly out coached today. The Princeton offense is completely missing and the one on one moves that have replaced it are not working. Very discouraging outing.

I frankly don't recognize your team. Everything is iso! We're the ones making the extra passes.

Is there a reason Young took Bell's free throws (0 for 2) instead of Canaday (who's shttoing 92%?). Brutal misses down 2 with a minute to play. I don't get it.

I think Donahue got to select the shooter once Bell wasn't coming back out.

I thought the substitute player has to shoot.

If the sub could shoot it then teams would have an incentive to fake an injury and substitute a great FT shooter from the bench.

Um, that $50 you slipped the refs before the game worked wonders. We're the ones that will be having a hangover after this travesty.

Reminiscent of the kind of games Harvard pulled out of their behinds a few years back on their way to winning the league title. I'll take it but jeez....

How bad are the calls going to be at that crappy gym in jersey?

Pretty bad when you consider the calls went 25-14 for the opposition on your home court. Many questionable calls and non-calls tonight really hurt the Quakers.

We stole this game. Didn't deserve to win but did.

Let the players celebrate as they should, but Penn was a FT away from ruining our entire season for the same reasons past MH teams have choked during conference play -- listless, low-energy play with no fire or focus. I really, really hope they learned their lesson. Props to Myles Stephens for the ice-water 4/4 FTs and the big strip on Silpe.

Now let us never speak of this "win" ever again.

That was worse than the nova game. At least nova is a good team, Princeton is awful

I couldn't find a Fox Sports feed and listened via WPRB. Can someone tell me what actually happened to Amir Bell? To what extent did it look like an intentional foul? Will he probably be back for our next game?
