The landscape of both the 2012-13 and 2013-14 Ivy League men's basketball seasons have potentially changed significantly with the news that Harvard co-captain and top returning scorer Kyle Casey will withdraw from school for a year after being embroiled in an academic cheating scandal. Fellow co-captain Brandyn Curry has also been implicated but has yet to make a decision on his future.
Before recording an out last night Chris Young surrendered two walks, hit a batter and then gave up a grand slam. Young would settle in, allowing five earned runs on four hits in 4.1 frames of work. The Mets rallied and bested Philadelphia 9-5 in 10 innings.
Will Venable continues to streak, hitting .389 in his last 10 games.
The Trenton Times has more on Princeton's trip to Spain.

To bide time during the offseason, ESPN devised an objective formula from which they're counting down the top 50 college basketball programs of the past 50 years. In a "now neither school's fans can argue which team is better" twist, Princeton and Penn tied for 22nd place.
Paralyzed former Rutgers football player Eric LeGrand visited the Tigers yesterday during one of the team's first practices before their trip to Spain. In this picture you can see LeGrand, the Princeton coaching staff and what I believe are the 12 players who will be making the overseas trip.
Want some names to keep tabs on as possible Princeton recruits? These lists from ESPN and Scout show prospects with varying levels of interest in the Tigers.
Now batting second in the Padres' lineup, Will Venable is 10-16 at the plate in his last four games.
Doug Davis talks about the start of his professional career in Germany.
It was 15 up and 15 down for Chris Young (3-7) last night until an infield single started a four run frame for Colorado, aided by Young's throwing error. Young threw seven innings of five hit baseball, allowing two earned runs and striking out nine.
Will Venable followed up two singles on Monday by equalling his career high with four hits plus three runs scored as San Diego bested Pittsburgh in extra innings. Highlights are streaming here.
The 2012-13 Denver basketball schedule has been announced.

By now you've likely heard that the Los Angeles Lakers are looking to bring in Eddie Jordan as an assistant at Kobe Bryant's behest and start running some variation of the "Princeton Offense."

I think it is fair to also expect the Dartmouth/Harvard road trip to be the weekend of February 16th and those two teams to return to Jadwin in reverse order the weekend of March 1st. If Penn concludes the conference slate (as tradition has dictated), the only remaining question is where the first game versus the Quakers slots and whether that would come prior to the exam break or not.
Will Venable (video) dropped in a two run double to give San Diego a lead they would not relinquish versus San Francisco yesterday.
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.
