Chris Young has "graduated" from his rehab program.
Cornell is ranked 25th in the latest ESPN/USA Today Coaches Poll. If the Big Red win this weekend's games against Yale and Brown, they will become the first Top 25 team to visit Jadwin Gym since #4 Kansas played Princeton in 2001.
Princeton heads to Cambridge on Friday evening, where they will face Harvard guard Jeremy Lin (seen above battling Kyle Koncz for a loose ball) for the seventh time.
Lin has put up big numbers - in the Top 200 in Percentage of Possessions Used, Effective FG%, True Shooting %, Assist Rate, Steal Percentage, Fouls Drawn/40 and FT Rate/40 - and received a lot of attention from opposing defenses and national media his senior season, one of the primary reasons the Crimson have gone 14-4 this year.
But how has Lin faired against the Tigers the first six times he's played Princeton?
When Barack Obama stopped by the CBS broadcast booth to join Clark Kellogg and Verne Lundquist during Saturday's Duke/Georgetown game, Kellogg and the President joked about a 1981 meeting between Ohio State and a Princeton team led by Craig Robinson.
This contest, played at Madison Square Garden, ended with Kellogg's Buckeyes on top by four.
TigerBlog has more on the match-up and the Princeton Athletic Department was nice enough to scan a box score, which is pictured above.
When the two teams met the prior season (a 72-46 OSU romp in Columbus), Robinson had 15 points and eight boards while Kellogg scored 13 and grabbed six.
Sophomore guard Douglas Davis was named Ivy League Player of the Week on the heels of the Tigers' wins at Brown and Yale. Davis scored 29 points over the weekend on 11-19 shooting. It is the first time Davis has picked up this honor.
Davis wasn't the only Princeton player hoisting hardware today. 10 points versus the Bears and eight at Yale earned freshman forward Ian Hummer the nod as Ivy League Rookie of the Week. It is Hummer's second time being recognized by the conference.

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.
