An impressive defensive team held Princeton to 21 points FOR A WHOLE GAME. The Northeast Champion however is almost always a 16 seed. And that 145 RPI could send them to the play-in game. Thanks for playing. And while I have your attention can we do better than Hawks?? I almost had nothing to write about this team. North Jersey team with the Sopranos such a part of the culture up there could they change their name to the Swimming Fishes, would be appropriate after playing Duke, UConn, or Villanova.
