Around the Ivy League: Penn (8-20 / 5-6) led the entire way versus Harvard (17-9 / 9-3) but a landscape-altering result was not secure until Christian Webster's three point shot came up short of the rim at the horn with the Crimson trailing by three. Yale (12-17 / 6-6) won 79-70 at beguiling Cornell (13-16 / 5-7). A Tucker Halpern three point shot at the buzzer gave Brown (12-14 / 6-6) the 61-58 decision against Columbia (11-14 / 3-8).

If it wasn't for a foot injury endured during Princeton's non-conference slate last season, tonight would have been Will Barrett's Senior Night.
The re-junior with an extra year of eligibility remaining lifted his former 2013 classmates in their final contest at Jadwin Gym, scoring a career high 23 on 5-11 three point shooting to rally an initially clumsy and careless band of Tigers past Dartmouth.
Barrett made three consecutive shots from behind the arc with Princeton up five, helping extend a late advantage to 57-47 with 3:26 remaining.
The Tigers converted their final 10 free throws to hold off the Big Green before five points against the far bench reserves in the last seven seconds made the final closer than it seemed.
“I’m really happy for the senior class to get a home sweep,” said Princeton head coach Mitch Henderson. “It wasn’t a pretty game for us but I think this kind of happens in the [Ivy] League.”
In addition to Barrett's outside shooting, T.J. Bray hit four of five times from deep on his way to 21 points and Ian Hummer totaled 13 in his ultimate game at home.
A night after going 1-10 from three, the Tigers returned to form connecting on 10-19 outside attempts including an 8-13 second half.
Randy Melville's son Tyler was superb for Dartmouth, scoring a personal best 23 on 9-11 attempts. He was joined by Gabas Maldunas (17) in double figures.
Princeton trailed 19-11 with 6:35 left in the first half and 21-20 at the intermission before returning on an 11-3 run.
Postgame audio from Coach Mitch Henderson, Will Barrett & Brendan Connolly plus the rest of this recap can all found after the jump.

A friend donated a stack of contributions for my Princeton basketball collection. While they've been sitting at the front of my home since before I drove down to James Madison, I didn't get a chance to scan them until today.

At Jadwin Gym on Friday night, a reader of this site handed me a stack of Princeton Seniors on a Stick that had been gathering dust in his garage. Along with duplicates of many favorite Tigers was one poster I hadn't been aware of previously: Jason Osier.
Osier was a two sport athlete at Princeton who played varsity basketball in 1993-94, 1994-95 and with the 1996-97 undefeated Ivy League champions. He was also a member of the men's lacrosse team.
Here is an update to the definitive list of SOAS that were printed:
M. Schroeder, Z. Finley, P. Buczak, N. Lake (2010)
M. Strittmatter, J. Briggs (2009)
N. Savage, K. Koncz, K. Steuerer, M. Sargeant, Z. Woolridge (2008)
E. Persia (2004)
M. Henderson, S. Gregory, S. Goodrich, J. Mastaglio, D. Hite (1998)
S. Johnson, J. Osier (1997)
M. Eastwick, C. Marquardt, S. Jackson (1992)
K. Mueller, T. Hottenstein, M. Henshon, J. Doyle (1991)
M. Lapin (1990)
While I have pictures of them I'm missing a Jimmy Lane and a George Leftwich for a complete collection. My guess is that a Chris Doyal SOAS was never issued because of the tie at the end of the Ivy slate between Princeton and Penn.
Any others?
All 1990-2004 Seniors on a Stick printed and distributed by The 14 Club at the final home game of an Ivy League championship season to honor that year's senior class. princetonbasketball.com has picked up this tradition for the final home game of all Princeton seasons.

A site reader graciously informed me that his parents were trying to find a new home for their stack of classic Seniors on a Stick. When I stopped by their house today for pick up they had decided to hold on to a few, including the two missing faces from my near-complete collection.
However, they did let me take snapshots of Jim Lane and George Leftwich's mugs. If someone reading has extras of either, I'd be happy to take them off your hands!
The afternoon was by no means a loss. I walked away with extra "Kit," "Slapper" and "Ivy Champs '89 '90 '91" oversized posters.

Thanks, Eddie!
The final 14 Club Senior On A Stick, printed on orange and white posters for Ed Persia's last game at Jadwin Gym.
While the injured Persia did not play in Princton's 59-46 victory over Cornell, he would return for the Tigers' NCAA tournament game against Texas, scoring three points and handing out three assists in nine minutes off the bench.
