Does anyone know the extent of the injury to Schweiger? If he is not able to play in the Tournament, then it would seem that today's team will have a rough time with Yale or Harvard. If he is healthy, then Princeton has a fighting chance.

Cambridge sure has thought this game was over for awhile now, between the attempted reverse dunk on an offensive rebound, and the pose after blocking Stephens’s layup attempt.
Didn’t look like Martin was very happy with the posing.

Congrats, OB. Nice to see Anderson be an important part of the team, after a tough season for him.

If Schweiger plays, we win. But whatever -- it's all about the Ivy tourney.
Just hope it's nothing major and Ryan will be good to go next weekend.

Weird not minding that much as the Tigers sleepwalked through the first half and then almost but not quite came all the way back. Llewelyn didn't force anything but looked pretty out of it. The freshman made some freshman mistakes. Morales had a good game, Stephens was harassed by the officials, Arirguzoh had to go through the entire collapsing Brown defense as nobody could hit a three until the end.
Same lesson, though--when this team needs to get out of the doldrums, play to force turnovers. They played much better once they used the 1-3-1, gambled out of the man, or set up their press.

Turns out Schwieger had a concussion, which means he'll miss tomorrow but be ready for Ivy Madness. Good to hear.

Harvard, Yale and Princeton lose against desperate teams -- not all that surprising but a function of IvyMadness. At one time several years ago, desperate games were for 1st place -- no longer. It is indeed called IvyMadnes.
After tonight, I watch no Ivy men's games until the NCAA tournament but only if the regular season winner gets out of IvyMadness. Thanks Robin and your merry men.

How certain is this? Concussions (or their effects) can last longer than a week.

Princeton played without sophomore guard Ryan Schwieger, the breakout offensive star, who missed the game with a concussion. Henderson said the injury was day-to-day, but that Schwieger won’t play tomorrow against Yale.
"Day to day" sounds like he's probably cleared to play -- just no reason to rush.
Also, with Devin gone, we might as well give some other guys a chance to play. Let's see if anyone steps up this weekend.

More evidence that the tournament has completely eclipsed the regular season: the goprincetontigers.com article on the Brown game points out that “the result precludes the Tigers from attaining the No. 1 seed in the Ivy League Tournament, but the Tigers are in the event next weekend in New Haven and will either be the third or fourth seed“ but there is no mention that if the Tigers win tonight and Harvard loses that Princeton will be co-champions of the league.
