Postgame audio - Dan Mavraides:

Every day from the time he was hired on April 23rd, 2007 Princeton head coach Sydney Johnson has shown up for work and seen it.

It hangs high above the floor of center court at Jadwin Gym, furthest to the right of the five identical orange and black banners.

The other four rectangles are bloated with 24 different white-stitched years.

It is stark by comparison.

To the right of those numbers, there has remained a void of empty black space longing to be filled.

With the Tigers' 70-58 win at Penn to close the 2010-11 regular season, the gonfalone will finally be altered. Princeton erased an early eight point second half deficit and outscored Penn 36-15 over a 13 minute stretch to secure a share of the Ivy League title.

Now the Tigers will play Harvard on Saturday afternoon at Yale to decide which school represents the conference in the NCAA Tournament.

"I've dreamed about this moment for a long time, since the day I arrived at Princeton," Johnson said from the cramped Palestra media room. "That was my goal for our players. I wanted them to have the experience I had."
