Live chat on Wednesday night.

Hello, everyone.

Thank you for your interest in princetonbasketball.com this season.

With four members of the extended Princeton family - Richmond, Northwestern, Georgetown and Oregon State - all playing in postseason games on Wednesday, I've decided to do something new on the site:

The first-ever princetonbasketball.com live chat!

You'll be able to ask me questions, talk about the games as they happen and interact with each other starting at 6:30 pm ET through the final buzzer in Corvallis.

The chat will be moderated.

I'll be providing updates on all four games and I might have a prize or two to give away during this marathon.

I hope you'll check it out.

Best,

Jon Solomon
