As we head in Ivy play this weekend, just thought I'd throw this stat out there.
Neither Penn nor Princeton has EVER lost 20 or more games in a season. All other Ivy teams have had seasons of at least 20 losses (in fact, each of the other six schools has had at least one of those seasons since 1998-99).
Penn lost 19 in the 1956-57 season, most ever, and Princeton's most losses ever was 16, in the 1946-47 season. (This is, of course, assuming the media guides are correct...always a dangerous assumption).
Princeton is 2-10 with 15 games left. Assuming they lose at Davidson in a few weeks, they will need to go 9-5 in the Ivies to avoid setting a new mark for futility and will need to go 6-8 to avoid the 20-loss mark.
