The Princeton Tigers have done it again. After a successful regular season, the Tigers have secured a berth in the NCAA Tournament, further cementing their legacy as one of the most successful college basketball programs in the nation.
The Tigers have been a powerhouse in college basketball for decades. They have made the NCAA Tournament in 28 of the last 32 years, and have won the Ivy League title in 24 of those years. This year, they finished the regular season with a 23-7 record, and earned an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament.
The Tigers have been a consistent presence in March Madness, making the Sweet 16 four times since 1989. They have also made two Elite Eight appearances, and have won two NCAA Tournament games in the last three years. This year, they will look to add to their impressive tournament record.
The Tigers are led by head coach Mitch Henderson, who is in his sixth season at Princeton. Henderson has been instrumental in the team’s success, leading them to four Ivy League titles and five NCAA Tournament appearances. He has also been named Ivy League Coach of the Year twice.
The Tigers are led by senior guard Devin Cannady, who is averaging 16.7 points per game and shooting 44 percent from three-point range. Cannady is joined by junior forward Myles Stephens and sophomore guard Jerome Desrosiers, who are both averaging double-digits in scoring.
The Tigers will be a tough out in the NCAA Tournament. They are a well-coached team with experienced players and a strong tradition of success. If they can continue to play at a high level, they could make a deep run in the tournament and add to their already impressive legacy.
