Shot in the balcony across from the Princeton bench.
At least you get to see Bobby Foley's jumper at the buzzer (nice pass, John Comfort) and all 40 of the Tigers' ticket recipients wearing orange behind the team.
The latest collection of videos from various corners of the Princeton basketball family. A few #pixelvision moments from Georgetown's season opener at Old Dominion kick us off.
A day after their four point loss to CCRI, the Mercer Vikings (0-1) were back home Sunday for the second afternoon of the Mercer/Burlington Classic against the Suffolk N.Y. Clippers.
Flat on defense and repeatedly missing open three point shots from the same space on the far right side of the Suffolk zone, the Vikings found themselves in an early 15-4 hole.
"I don't mind them taking the right threes but I think the threes tend to go in after some more ball movement," said Mercer County C.C. head coach Howie Levy. "They were open but the weren't necessarily the greatest shots - that's part of the learning process to know you're always going to get that shot, let's see if we can do a bit better."
The latest collection of videos from various corners of the Princeton basketball family. Bill Carmody speaks at Northwestern's Midnight Madness event above.
A reader was kind enough to send a DVD of Princeton freshman T.J. Bray's final game as a high school senior my way. Back in March of this year Bray scored 20 points and grabbed 12 rebounds as Catholic Memorial won the WIAA Division 2 state title over Maple Northwestern.
I've spent my evening cutting this tape of Wisconsin's 2010 Mr. Basketball down to just under 10 minutes of offensive and defensive highlights.
Catholic Memorial are in the white uniforms and Bray is wearing #20.
With so little out of practice about the Tigers' frosh, hopefully these clips will whet your appetite as we approach the season opener.
I completely forgot that I shot and edited this montage for the Friends of Princeton Basketball from Reunions 2003 of the alumni basketball games at Jadwin Gym.
Pictured at different junctures: John Thompson III, Kyle Wente, Ray Robins, Pete Hegseth, Steve Goodrich (with platinum blonde hair!), Jerry Price, Ahmed El-Nokali, Chris Doyal, Jim Lane, Frank Sowinski, Nate Walton, Stu Orefice, Jason Osier, Stan Adleston, Sean Gregory, Gabe Lewullis, Rich Simkus, John Trubee, Christopher Kilburn-Peterson, Jamie Mastaglio, Brian Earl and many others I can't as easily ID.
The Library of Congress has posted Craig Robinson's September appearance at the National Book Festival in full. Probably my favorite telling of how Robinson's father helped his son decide to attend Princeton is in this video.
The best footage I've found from Georgetown's 2010-11 kickoff event was filmed by The Hoya. Summarizes an entire evening into two concise minutes quite well.
princetonbasketball.com was founded on April 28th, 1998 in an attempt to provide fans of the Princeton Tigers and Ivy League basketball with the best on-line source for up-to-date news and information. We have since expanded to launch a companion site, Georgetown Basketball News.
As these sites have continued to grow we have increased our coverage to include additional teams with Princeton connections - the Richmond Spiders, Denver Pioneers, Oregon State Beavers, Fairfield Stags and Mercer County Community College Vikings - plus former Tigers playing professional baseball and basketball all over the world.
