Last Time Out

A record-breaking 30-point win at Columbia back on Feb. 11 didn't matter last Saturday against the Lions in Jadwin Gym as Princeton used a late surge to extend its home winning streak over Columbia into an 18th season with a 66-61 win. In the first meeting, Princeton had enjoyed its largest-ever win at Columbia, 76-46. In the rematch, Dan Mavraides scored all 14 of his points in a late six-minute span, rebounding from an 0-7 start from the field to make his last four shots as well as pick up two steals, a rebound and an assist from the 6:30 mark until there were 29 seconds to go. That stretch turned a 50-46 deficit into a 64-58 lead.

Kareem Maddox, getting a senior-night start, scored 20 points against Columbia to lead Princeton in his first start since Nov. 22, 2010. The season's final home game also saw senior Bobby Foley get his first career start and sophomore Mack Darrow score 10 points for his most since an 11-point effort against Penn in the OT win on Feb. 8.

Princeton used a 62.3% (33 of 53) shooting night to defeat Cornell 84-66 Friday night in Jadwin Gym. It was Princeton's highest shooting percentage in a game in six years since a March 4, 2005 game in which the Tigers hit at a 70.3% clip against Harvard in Jadwin Gym.

Princeton's 84 points last Friday against Cornell were its most against an Ivy League opponent since scoring 85 against Brown on March 4, 2000 in Jadwin, and its most in regulation against a Division I team since scoring 89 on Dec. 7, 2002 at Lafayette.

Princeton's 55.6% (10 of 18) shooting clip from distance against Cornell was a marked difference from the previous three games. The Tigers went from shooting below 20% from beyond the arc in three straight games for the first time in the 25 years that the 3-point line has been in place to its best single game from distance since making 5 of 8 (62.5%) against Yale on Jan. 29. It was Princeton's best percentage when making at least 10 3-pointers since hitting 13 of 19 (68.4%) in an 82-58 win over Yale on Feb. 19, 2010.

The same Feb. 19, 2010 game against Yale was also the last time Princeton had as many as 25 assists, as it did against Cornell, when it also tallied 25 against the Bulldogs.

22-5, 10-1 Ivy

This year's Tigers are one of seven Princeton teams to record exactly 22 wins, tying these Tigers for the sixth-most wins in program history. One more win would tie the 2010-11 Tigers for fifth alongside the 1965 Final Four team with 23 wins, and two wins would tie this team for third alongside Sydney Johnson's senior-year team in 1997 as well as the 1991 team with 24 wins. Next up would be the 25-win team from 1967, followed by the record-holding 27-2 team from 1998 that earned a No. 5 seed in the NCAA Tournament and advanced to the second round. That 1998 Tiger team was the last Ivy squad to win an NCAA Tournament game until last season.

Princeton's 10-1 record is its best in Ivy League play since 2004, when it was able to win the last five and finish Ivy play at 13-1 as the league champion.

This year's Tigers are the 16th Princeton team to stand 10-1 or 11-0 in Ivy play. Of the previous 15, all of them won at least a share of the Ivy League title. Two (1959 to Dartmouth, 1968 to Columbia) lost in a playoff for the NCAA bid. The other 13, including the last 11, made the NCAA Tournament. One of those teams, the 1996 club on which Sydney Johnson was a junior captain, won a playoff against Penn to earn the tournament bid.

Of the previous eight Princeton teams to stand 10-1 in Ivy play, five (1959, 1965, 1977, 1981, 2004) were able to sweep the final three games. The 1968 and 1996 teams went 2-1 down the stretch, while the 1989 team went 1-2 over its final three.

Princeton's 22-5 record is its best through 27 games since the 1997-98 team completed its regular season at 26-1 with its only loss to a North Carolina team that advanced to the Final Four. Those Tigers advanced to the NCAA second round after gaining a No. 5 seed in the tournament.

Princeton's back-to-back 20-win seasons (22-9 in 2009-10) are its first since the 1998 and 1999 seasons.

Following a 2-4 start to the 2009-10 season, Princeton has won 42 of its last 52 games. Following a 2-3 start to this season, with two of those losses coming by a combined three points, Princeton has won 20 of its last 22 games.

Against Dartmouth and Harvard

Princeton will be looking for its third straight win each at Dartmouth and Harvard this weekend. Continuing either streak would give Princeton its first string of three victories in either building since 2002-04.

Princeton defeated Harvard 65-61 in Jadwin Gym on Feb. 4 despite being outshot 43.8% to 39.6% and outrebounded 36-29, a figure that included a double-double for Harvard's Keith Wright (16 pts., 11 reb.). Turnovers and three-point defense tipped the game for the Tigers, who committed just eight turnovers to 15 for Harvard and held the Crimson to 18.8% (3 of 16) from beyond the arc.

Against Harvard, Ian Hummer led Princeton with 17 points, while Dan Mavraides chipped in 15 points and a team-high seven boards while Kareem Maddox blocked five shots and scored 14 points. Princeton led by as much as 11 with nine minutes to go before Harvard made one last push, cutting the deficit to two with as little as six seconds left at 63-61 before two Hummer free throws iced it.

A day after staking claim to first place with the Feb. 4 win over Harvard, Princeton started out slow against Dartmouth in eventual 68-53 win, falling behind 12-3 five minutes in before going on a 12-2 run to retake the lead. After a back-and-forth first half, Princeton outscored the Big Green 34-19 after the break.

Against the Big Green, Kareem Maddox grabbed a career-high 15 rebounds while three other Tigers reached double digits in points. Ian Hummer scored 19, with Douglas Davis adding 16 and Dan Mavraides 14. Tyler Melville, son of Princeton basketball alum Randy Melville '81, led Dartmouth with 11 points while Kirk Crecco and David Rufful had 10 apiece.

Princeton is the only Ivy League team to have won its last visit to Lavietes Pavilion. Harvard has swept its first five Ivy home games, and Penn lost its last visit a year ago.

Princeton has had more success against Harvard than any other Ivy League team over the last four seasons, going 6-1 since the teams' current respective head coaches joined their programs. The Tigers are 5-2 against Dartmouth during the same span.

The only common non-league foe for Princeton and Dartmouth this season is Bucknell, which Princeton defeated in November and Dartmouth fell to in December. The only common non-league opponent to Princeton and Harvard is Monmouth, which both teams defeated in December.

Jadwin Gym Success

Princeton wrapped up a 12-0 home schedule with the Columbia victory, tying these Tigers with the 1990 and 1998 teams for the most games won in Jadwin without a loss in a single season. The 2010-11 Tigers are the sixth team in the 42 full seasons of Jadwin Gym to complete the slate without a loss, following the 1975 (10-0), 1977 (11-0), 1990 (12-0), 1991 (9-0) and 1998 (12-0) teams.

It has been more than a full calendar year without a home loss for Princeton, which last lost in Jadwin on Feb. 20, 2010 to Brown. Through Tuesday's games, Princeton's 16-game Jadwin winning streak is tied for the 11th-longest active home winning streak in Division I. Duke holds the longest streak at 35 games, followed by Kentucky at 33 and Utah State at 31.

The 16-game home winning streak is Princeton's longest since the Tigers won 22 in a row from Jan. 6, 1997 to Dec. 9, 1998. It is tied for the fourth-longest winning streak in Jadwin Gym history, alongside a 16-gamer from 1973-75, and behind an 18-gamer from 1976-78, the 22-gamer from 1997-98 and a 28-gamer from 1989-91.

Historical Notes

After getting his fifth double-double with 18 points and 12 rebounds at Brown on Feb. 19, Ian Hummer is the first Princeton player since Bob Roma '79 in 1979 to have five double-doubles in one season. Andy Rimol '74, with seven in 1974, was the last Princeton player with more than five.

As far as fellow sophomores getting five double-doubles, Ian Hummer has the most since Andy Rimol had five in 1972, while Chris Thomforde '69 is next on the list chronologically with 11 in 1967.

Ian Hummer still has a way to go to reach his family record for double-doubles in a season, as uncle John Hummer '70 had nine as a senior, while father Ed Hummer '67 had a high of six in 1966 as a junior.

Sydney Johnson '97 is now the fifth Princeton coach in history to have at least two 20-win seasons. Albert Wittmer (1923-32) also had two, while Bill Carmody (1996-00) and Butch van Breda Kolff '45 (1962-67) had three apiece and Pete Carril (1967-96) had 10.

Playing its first five Ivy League games at home and then 7 of 9 on the road may be unusual for Princeton, but it's not unprecedented. The Tigers had the same setup in 1985, 1994 and 1996. In none of those three years, however, did Princeton win all five of the early home games, as it did this year. In '85, the Tigers started 2-3 at home, then 4-1 each in '94 and '96. Princeton went 5-4 the rest of the Ivy season in '85, then 7-2 in '94 and 8-1 in '96. So far in 2011, Princeton is 5-1 since the five-game home start to the Ivy season.

Individual Milestones

Next on the 1,000-point list for Douglas Davis (1,054), who against Penn on Feb. 8 became the first junior in 21 years to reach the mark, is Armond Hill '85, now an assistant coach with the Boston Celtics, at 1,057 points. James Brangan '60 (1,062) and Art Hyland '63 (1,064) are close as well.

Kareem Maddox's block numbers have increased each season, from nine as a freshman to 16 as a sophomore, then 27 as a junior and already 51 this season for a career total of 103. Maddox is the third Tiger since the block stat began being recorded regularly in 1975-76 to record 100 career blocks, alongside Chris Young '02 (145) and Rick Hielscher '95 (159).

Maddox's 51 blocks this season have him behind only Chris Young '02, who had 55 blocks as a rookie in 1998-99 and 90 as a sophomore in 1999-00 before signing a baseball contract with the Pittsburgh Pirates, ending his eligibility. Young is now a New York Met.

Douglas Davis stands fourth on the career 3-point list at 185 with still a way to go to pass Gabe Lewullis '99 (212), Sean Jackson '92 (235) and current assistant coach Brian Earl '99 (281). Dan Mavraides is tied for seventh on the list at 155 with Noah Savage '08 and Bob Scrabis '89. Next on the list for Mavraides are two familiar names, former teammate Kyle Koncz '08 (156) and head coach Sydney Johnson '97 (162).

Douglas Davis is one of five Princeton players in the 25 years the rule has been in place to hit 50 3-pointers in each of three seasons, along with Sean Jackson '92, Gabe Lewullis '99, Brian Earl '99 and Kyle Koncz '08. Next year, he could join Earl as the only Tiger to hit 50 in all four seasons. Dan Mavraides, with two such seasons, is the seventh Tiger with multiple 50 3-pointer seasons.

Davis and Mavraides are fourth and eighth respectively on the school's career list of 3-pointers attempted. Davis (464) is behind Sean Jackson '92 (501), while next up for Mavraides (400) is Noah Savage '08 (414). Brian Earl '99 is the leader at 675.

Princeton in the Ivy and NCAA Rankings

Princeton has no individual leaders in any Ivy all-season rankings but leads the league as a team in scoring defense (63.1 ppg), in field goal percentage defense (.414), and in 3-point field goal percentage defense (.327).

Among conference-only games, Mack Darrow leads the Ivy in 3-point field goal percentage at (.458). Princeton has the best scoring defense in the Ivy League to this point at 59.1 ppg, the biggest per-game scoring margin (+8.7 ppg), the lowest field goal percentage allowed both overall (.399) and from 3-point range (.299), the highest average in rebounding offense (35.7 rpg), and the biggest per-game rebounding margin (+5.4).

In the NCAA rankings released prior to Monday's games, Princeton's top national ranking other than winning percentage (15th, .815) was in field goal percentage (46th, .465). Ian Hummer held Princeton's top individual ranking, in field goal percentage (32nd, .560).

Tiger Trends

Princeton is 13-0 when it shoots better than 46.0% from the field this season.

Princeton is 7-0 when it shoots 42% or better from beyond the arc.

Princeton is 13-0 this season when opponents shoot 40% or lower from the field.

Princeton is 17-0 when opponents shoot 36% or lower from distance.

Princeton is 10-0 this season when holding opponents to fewer than 10 assists.

The magic number on the scoreboard for Princeton this season has been 68. The Tigers are 13-0 this season when they score 68 points. Princeton is also 16-0 when opponents score 64 or fewer points.

Princeton is 12-0 this season when an opponent has not reached 28 points by halftime.

The Tigers are 17-2 when leading at the half, 4-3 when trailing and 1-0 when tied. The comebacks include: Siena (down four, won by nine in OT), Tulsa (down one, won by four in double OT), Harvard (down one, won by four), and Columbia (down one, won by five). The givebacks include James Madison (up by 13, lost by one) and UCF (up by eight, lost by six).

Rebounding has not had a perfect correlation to victory for the Tigers this season, who are 7-2 when they get outrebounded and 15-3 when they win the battle of the boards.

Princeton has four players averaging double-figure points, with Ian Hummer at 14.0, Kareem Maddox at 13.8, Dan Mavraides at 12.8, and Douglas Davis at 12.1. Princeton has not had four players finish a season in double figures since 2003, when four starters, including current San Diego Padres outfielder Will Venable '05, did so.

Excluding senior night, Princeton has used two starting lineups this season. Dan Mavraides and Brendan Connolly have started all 27 games, while Ian Hummer and Douglas Davis started all 26 except for senior night, and Patrick Saunders has started the last 24 after Kareem Maddox held that spot for the first three contests. The senior night lineup included Mavraides, Maddox, Connolly, Saunders and Bobby Foley.

If It Happens...

The Tigers set a program record with four OT victories in one season when they beat Penn 62-59 on Feb. 8. This team is the fifth Tiger program to play in at least four OT games, alongside 1978-79, 1994-95 and 1998-99. The record for OT games in one season belongs to the 1980-81 Tigers, who played in five.

If Kareem Maddox scores 30 points again this season, he would join Bill Bradley '65, Geoff Petrie '70 and Brian Taylor '84 as the only Tigers in program history with three 30-point games in a season. Presently, he is the only Ivy League with two 30-point games this season (31 at Tulsa, 30 vs. Siena), and he is the first Tiger with two 30-point games in a season since Kevin Mullin '84.

Princeton has had five players scoring in double-figures in four games this season, against Marist, Towson, Monmouth and Saint Joseph's. It is the first time Princeton has had five players reach double figures in as many as four games since the 1973-74 season. The 1971-72 season was the last time Princeton had five such games. The 1967-68 team holds the record with nine such games.

Princeton has had as many as six players reach double figures in a game three times, in 1956, 1967 and 2000. The 2000 game, coming Mar. 4 against Brown, is the only time in program history Princeton had seven players in double figures.

Princeton's last game in which two players each had a double-double came on March 2, 1974 at Columbia. Barnes Hauptfuhrer (14 pts., 12 reb.) and Andy Rimol (21 pts., 11 reb.) performed the feat that day, and Ian Hummer and Kareem Maddox have come close this season.

Coach Sydney Johnson

Sydney Johnson is seventh in program history in games coached at 114. Next on the games-coached list is Bill Carmody at 117. Carmody coached Johnson in his final season as a Tiger player. The rest of the list inclludes Pete Carril as the all-time leader at 775 games, followed by Franklin "Cappy" Cappon at 431, Albert Wittmer at 201, Frederick Leuhring at 143 and Butch van Breda Kolff '45 at 134.

Johnson has 63 victories as Princeton's head coach, good for eighth on the program's list. Up next is John Thompson III '88 at 68.

Johnson is the third-longest tenured coach in the Ivy League, one week short of Harvard's Tommy Amaker, with both men in their fourth seasons at their current schools. Yale's James Jones is the Ivy dean, in his 12th season.

Since the beginning of calendar year 2009, Johnson's record is 55-20.

Johnson is one of five Princeton alumni who are currently Division I head coaches, all disciples of Pete Carril. The other four are Chris Mooney '94 (Richmond), John Thompson III '88 (Georgetown), Joe Scott '87 (Denver) and Craig Robinson '83 (Oregon State). Princeton is tied with Indiana, and behind North Carolina (seven), for the second-most active Division I head coaches produced.

"MARV" and "CRUNCH"

Princeton's "MARV" patches are in honor of Marvin Bressler, the late professor who came to Princeton in 1963 and began serving in an informal advisor role with the team. He was an inspiration to create the Academic-Athletic Fellows program that serves all Princeton teams. Bressler was an Academic-Athletic Fellow for men's basketball through the 2009-10 season before he passed away on July 7, 2010 at age 87.

The "CRUNCH" patches on Princeton's warmups are in honor of Christian "Crunch" Regulski, an 11-year-old boy who passed away on Feb. 10, 2011. "Crunch" was connected with the Tigers through the Friends of Jaclyn organization that links children living with brain tumors to supportive local sports teams.

The Opponents

On Dartmouth: The Big Green enter on a nine-game losing streak with its last win coming Jan. 28 against Cornell at Leede Arena, 64-57 ... the closest game during the skid was last Friday at Yale in which the Big Green fell 79-75 in OT one night before Yale knocked off Harvard to allow the Tigers back into first place ...
