Harvard's Jeremy Lin.

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.

1981 Ohio State/Princeton box score.

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.

Sweep leads to sweep.

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.
