Penn men’s basketball fell to its archnemesis Princeton, 64-49, in a high-stakes rivalry match that kept the Quakers rooted to the bottom of the Ivy League and solidified the Tigers’ grip at the top.

Pollack | Penn's two losses to Princeton tell the story of its season
I went to both Penn-Princeton men's basketball games this year, and they tell the story of our team's season.
