Basketball Preview | Princeton Preview

Last season: 13-14, 8-6 Ivy

Head Coach: Sydney Johnson, third season, 19-37, 11-17 Ivy with Princeton

Last Ivy League Title: 2003-04

Projected Starters: Sr. C Pawel Buczak Jr. F Kareem Maddox Jr. G Dan Mavraides Sr. G Marcus Schroeder So. G Douglas Davis

Non-league highlights: Nov. 29 at No. 13 California; Dec. 3 at Rutgers Princeton will win if... The starters play even better than they did last year. All five return, and a bigger year could vault the Tigers back to the top.

Princeton will lose if... Davis has a sophomore slump. He led the Tigers in scoring as a rookie, so he can't have a drastic drop-off.

Last Year: Feb. 17: The Quakers won their fifth straight against Princeton with a 62-55 overtime victory in New Jersey. Mar. 10: In the finale of Penn's disappointing season, Princeton added insult to injury with a 59-56 victory at the Palestra.
