Look closely and you'll be able to make out a few familiar faces from the Princeton men's and women's teams. That's Pawel Buczak in the headband and teal Jerry Stackhouse jersey, isn't it? I also think I spot Bobby Foley and Zane Ma in the victory celebration.
Andy Katz writes about a nice gesture by Princeton Athletic Director Gary Walters at the Final Four.
Congratulations, Judson Wallace! You were named Honorable Mention 2008-09 All-Eurocup and to the All-Defensive Team.
Princeton recruit Will Barrett was also recognized with Honorable Mention All-Southeastern Pennsylvania Boys' Basketball status by the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Will Venable went 2-4 at the plate in Portland's 2-0 win over Fresno.
It looks more like a Nam June Paik piece than a basketball highlight, but someone filmed their TV showing Princeton's Kareem Maddox blocking a Duke jumper into the Blue Devils' bench at the 2007 Maui Invitational.
Cornell was able to handle Missouri's pressure defense, but the Big Red had difficulty consistently putting the ball in the basket. 2008 Ivy League Player of the Year Louis Dale finished 1-11 from the field. Ithaca's finest hung with the Tigers for 20 minutes, but Missouri pulled away over the back half of the game.
A double-double for Princeton recruit Ian Hummer as Gonzaga defeated Bishop McNamara, 66-43. The Purple Eagles play St. Frances Academy in tonight's A.C.I.T. championship game at 8:15 pm ET.
Some counterprogramming from last night. While the NCAA Tournament was in full swing and a trio of NIT games were unfolding, Oregon State men's basketball coach Craig Robinson was appearing on MSNBC's The Rachel Maddow Show.
American had a 14 point lead on Villanova early in the second half, before the Wildcats decided to stop trying to match the Eagles jump shot for jump shot and drive. Villanova took the lead back with under 6:30 to go and pulled away at the free throw line for the 80-67 win.
Cornell and Missouri face off in Boise this afternoon.
Ian Hummer scored 15 points as Gonzaga defeated Cathedral, 79-54. The Purple Eagles play Bishop McNamara tonight at 7:30 pm ET.
Hummer is on the roster for the Capitol City Classic, which takes place on April 9th at American University.
