Both teams moving ball well. Shots dropping ND not P --7-3.

Princeton takes the lead on a really nice Bell drive---ND doing what we see year after year against Ivy teams, i.e., playing looser defenses than we see Ivy League teams playing against each other.

Princeton can definitely win this. ND doesn't seem to have an athletic advantage.
Princeton is getting good looks even when missing. Weisz looks loose. Very good boxing out on the boards.

...but they're missing a lot. Wide open most of the time, too.

ND's defense has gotten tighter. Less room to put up 3's. Still there's some room. Gotta make them.

Missing wide open threes, but making good stops on D. Frustrating, as we are looking just as good but clanking too many threes. Can we keep up the great movement and d until our shots start to drop?

10-0 run. Less patience than I am used to from Princeton (as Weisz hits a 3 to end the streak).

Good D except for the back cuts allowed.

And less of the Cook they've gotten so far.

ND is solid. No more room for poor three shooting if we are going to keep ND from opening up an unbeatable lead.

T69, how many minutes can Gladson provide? We need a big body out there. Weird to say about a Princeton team.

But they're (sorry, I can't say "we" here) hanging in there. Well positioned for whenever those open 3s start falling.

You don't get more open than that. I think Princeton has had more wide open 3s already than in both Ivy playoff games.

The early nerves have faded. The D has been so-so, weak defensive rebounding, missed assignments, and some problems getting used to how strong ND is with the ball in their hands.

On the plus side, the Irish really can't defend the Princeton drivers without leaving easy trey attempts. Got to hit them.
