By my count, Penn is now 0 for its last 25 three point attempts.

I watched 0.0 minutes of this game and that was the right call. I didn’t know what happened until I got alert on my phone of the final, and that saved me a lot of wasted energy and frustration tonight. How sad is it that I had no interest in watching a Penn vs. Princeton game?
So in 2 weeks, it will have been 5 years since the last time Penn beat Princeton. I know because I was in the hospital while my first daughter was being born. Randomly still on my DVR. Who knew we could manage to lose at least the next 9 or 10 games over 5 years.
I looked at the box score, but it doesn’t really matter. Have no interest in watching “lowlights” and have no interest in hearing any excuses. Curious does anyone even interview the coaches any more? Would love to hear what they could possibly have to say.

Sorry one point to clarify, “only” 7 or 8 losses in a row (obviously no season reduced by two). Rest of point remains.
I did find a reporter who asked Coach Donahue a Q after the game “what would you tell the fanbase about the performance tonight?”

Amazing that both Penn men and women lost to Princeton on the same day playing the exact same unwatchable style of basketball. They both had only 5 assists in the game and both coaches relied on the worst looking 'offenses' imaginable: Give the ball to your two best players and let them iso while the rest of the team pretty much stands around and watches. It is not winning basketball, never has been and never will be.

Lack of a true point guard has been a problem for 2 years. They have willing passers but when they face a team that plays good man to man defense they just can't create good shots.
