It's not quite as humiliating as losing to Carnegie Mellon, but beating NJIT by one is not exactly a signature victory. Can Fran Dougherty be that important to Jerome Allen's team, or are they just plain awful?

The Quakers now have a victory over a team with a <300 Pomeroy Ranking!

NJIT checks in at 273, while UMBC (304) and Binghamton (343) are a ways behind.

Quacks are certainly not a good passing team based on our game, but four players with four+ TOs in one game is a disaster against Duke, never mind NJIT. Shows one of the weaknesses of scheduling "sure" wins: the chance of accomplishing less than nothing, even when you do win.

Corky Calhoun and Tony Price must be proud.

I have to give credit to the Penn Athletics website, which has very little homerism in its game descriptions compared to most of its peers. I haven't checked over at the Penn message boards, but I'll bet the call for playing Patrick Louis-Pierre more is reaching fever pitch.

The Story

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.
