Princeton recruit Denton Koon represents Kansas City at today's MBCA Missouri Challenge.

A right hand injury is hampering Will Venable. The former Princeton player is hitting .244 in 134 at bats for the Padres.

The latest collection of videos from various corners of the Princeton basketball family. Above, "Chin" from Gabe Lewullis to Brian Earl beats NC State at the Meadowlands in 1997.
Mitch Henderson has completed his Princeton coaching staff with the addition of Craig Moore as volunteer assistant.
A 2009 Northwestern graduate, Moore set Wildcat records for most three pointers in a game (9), season (110) and career (320 - fourth-most in Big Ten history) during his career while playing for Bill Carmody and then-assistant coach Henderson.
Moore hails from Doylestown, PA and attended the Lawrenceville School. He was part of the Big Red's staff for a portion of the 2010-11 season after suiting up one year in the Netherlands.
Moore and Brian Earl should have some legendary post-practice shooting contests.

Milan's Jonas Maciulis suffered a serious knee injury during the game.
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.
