Perfect!

(Check out our slideshow of the game.) PRINCETON, N.J. -- In the second half of last night's game, Penn could not miss.

The Quakers even made a shot by accident.

With 10:15 remaining, Penn senior David Klatsky threw an outlet pass from half-court to a streaking Adam Chubb. Chubb never touched the ball, however -- it went straight through the net. Princeton guard Will Venable gave Klatsky a friendly punch and could only shake his head and chuckle. It was just one of those days for the Quakers. Penn shot 73.7-percent from the field, including 6-for-6 from behind- the-arc, in the second half of last night's 74-67 victory at Princeton's Jadwin Gym. The win gave the Quakers a perfect record in the Ivy League, after having locked up the undisputed Ancient Eight crown Saturday night at the Palestra. "Going into this game we wanted this real bad," said Penn junior Jeff Schiffner, who finished the night with 13 points in all 40 minutes of play. "We're trying to accomplish these goals as we go along and tonight was another one we wanted." No matter how hot the Penn shooting, Princeton always seemed to find a response, led by feisty guard Ed Persia. The junior finished the night with 21 points on 7-for-13 shooting including the three-pointer that put the Tigers within one with two minutes, twelve seconds remaining. With the game in its waning moments, Princeton ran its screens for Persia. "Tonight was one of those days when we saw that he was the guy who was going to get the shots," Princeton coach John Thompson III said, particularly noting his roll of leadership. This is particularly notable after star Spencer Gloger was forced to leave Princeton last month because of academic troubles. The Tigers sophomore Judson Wallace had his way down low with an effective lefty jump hook -- the forward finished the night with 21 points before fouling out with 3:43 remaining. Frontcourt-mate Konrad Wysocki joined him with five fouls 2:20 later in a tussle for an offensive rebound -- Jeff Schiffner's free throws on the other end of the court all but iced the win for Penn. Penn's big men certainly held their own as well, however. Providing what has become an expected 20 points and six rebounds, Ugonna Onyekwe also dished three assists. Several times, the senior span away from the defense to lay the ball up with his left hand. Penn forward Koko Archibong was often the victim of Wallace's jump- hook, but after Persia's three, it was Archibong that responded from distance to put the Quakers back up four. With the three, the Quakers built the lead and Princeton fought the uphill battle the rest of the way. Penn junior Adam also chipped in with eight points in 17 minutes of action. "He's just taking advantage of the opportunity," Penn coach Fran Dunphy said of Chubb's recent reinvigoration. Two weeks ago att Yale, the junior scored 14. Despite Penn's inside presence, the Quakers did not shoot a free throw until Onyekwe missed a pair with 5:47 remaining. Penn, however finished with 17 total attempts, largely because of Princeton's attempts to stop the clock at the end of the game. After beginning the season with losses to Drexel and Delaware, the Quakers wait until Sunday to find where they'll be headed next week for the NCAA tournament. Last year, Penn fell to California in the first round after receiving a No. 11 seed, and Dunphy hopes that this senior-laden team will be able to learn from that experience. "When we got to that NCAA game, the California game, we didn't play particularly well," Penn's head man said. "And I think that stuck in our craw a little bit and I hope that serves as motivation for us next week."

News and Notes: Penn sophomore Jan Fikiel was in street clothes last night, recovering from a stomach flu that put him in the hospital. Andrew Coates was also affected with the virus though he did suit up. Coates, however, did not see any playing time...The Princeton dance team's halftime show featured a large contingent of male dancers. In the middle of the dance, the men had a lengthy solo to Eminem's "Lose Yourself"... With Penn's win yesterday, every series in the Ivy League this year was a sweep. It is the first time in league history that has happened.
