Princeton held its awards banquet at Jadwin Gym tonight.
The worthy recipients of honors at the 2007-2008 banquet included:
Class of 1959 Bob Rock Sixth Man Award - Jason Briggs*.
B.F. Bunn Trophy - Kyle Koncz & Noah Savage.
Friedman Memorial Award Trophy - Nick Lake.
The banquet is a appropriate epilogue for each season, regardless of results. This year's remarks from the five seniors, especially Noah Savage's mix of impressions and funny personal anecdotes left a lasting final memory of the class of 2008.
I did not get a chance to take a group photo of the seniors before the end of the night, so the above snapshot of Marcus Schroeder and Nick Lake listening intently to Coach Carril's words will have to do.
If anyone who was taking photos would like me to post them, I would not stop you from sending them my way. Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments.

* Without hopefully embarrassing anyone, I thought it was exceptionally classy of Briggs to go over to Bob Rock's widow and thank her and her family personally after receiving this award.
