• The Tigers have some milestones to play for over the season's final three games, including a 20-win season, a winning record in the Ivy League, a fifth straight road win over Columbia and a fifth straight home win over Penn.
• Princeton last won five straight road games at Columbia from 1996-2000. The Tigers last successfully defended home court five straight times against Penn from 1988-1992.
• If Princeton can win out, it would make Mitch Henderson just the third coach in program history to win at least 20 games in at least two of his first three seasons. The others were Butch van Breda Kolff '44 (1962-3 to 1964-5) and Bill Carmody (1996-7 to 1998-9).
• Princeton can outperform its predicted place in the Ivy League's preseason media poll. The Tigers were picked fourth behind Harvard, Penn and Yale. If Princeton wins out and Brown loses one of its two games this weekend, the Tigers would tie for third with Brown and Columbia and have a 3-1 record among the group.
• Freshman Spencer Weisz has a chance to become the first Ivy League Rookie of the Year for Princeton since Konrad Wysocki '04 in 2000-01. He leads Ivy freshmen in scoring on the season overall (9.8 ppg) and in Ivy League play (10.2 ppg). In Ivy play, he's ranked in the top 10 (or 20 in scoring/rebounding) in three statistical categories: scoring, 14th in rebounding (4.6 rpg) and seventh in FG percentage (.500). The only other rookies to rate in three statistical categories are Brown's Steven Spieth (sixth in rebounding, tied fifth in steals, tied sixth in defensive rebounds, first in free throw percentage) and Cornell's David Onuorah (15th in rebounding, fifth in blocks and second in offensive rebounds).
• Among prior Princeton freshmen, Weisz has scored the eighth-most points since freshmen became eligible in the 1978-79 season. His 244 points are the most for a Princeton freshman since Douglas Davis '12 scored 333 in 2008-09, and since he's scored in double figures in five straight games, he could move up to sixth on that list. Assistant coach Brian Earl '99 had 268 points as a freshman in 1995-96, and Sydney Johnson '97 had 273 points in 1993-94.
• Weisz has joined an impressive list in other statistical categories as well. His 56 assists are the most for a Princeton freshman since Marcus Schroeder '10 had 87 in 2006-07. His 114 rebounds are currently bettered by the 118 Hans Brase had last year, but if Weisz gets five more boards this season, he'd have the most for a Princeton freshman since Chris Young '02 had 160 in 1998-99.
• In 57 Ivy League seasons, Princeton has posted 51 winning Ivy seasons, four 7-7 finishes and just two losing records.
• Last time out against Brown, Princeton senior T.J. Bray passed John Thompson III '88 for third on the Princeton career assist list (kept since 1974-75). At 349 assists, he's behind only Kit Mueller '91 (381) and William Ryan '84 (413).
• Princeton has finished the Ivy season 9-5 or lower 15 times in the first 57 seasons of Ivy League basketball (last in 2008-09, 8-6). In the season following all 15 of those campaigns, Princeton's record was either the same (three times) or better (12 times), never worse. Five of those 15 times, Princeton went on to win the Ivy title the year after going 9-5 or lower. Eight of those 15 times, Princeton finished 11-3 or better a year after going 9-5 or lower.
• Freshmen Spencer Weisz (15) and Steven Cook (nine) have each started at least nine games, the first time since 2008-09 (Douglas Davis '12, Patrick Saunders '12) that Princeton has started rookies in that many games. If Cook and Weisz start one more game, it'd be the first time since 2006-07 (Marcus Schroeder '10, Lincoln Gunn '10) that two Princeton freshmen have started at least 10 games. Both Schroeder and Gunn started all 28 games that season.
• The Ivy League's official scoring champion is determined by Ivy games only, and Columbia's Alex Rosenberg has a 32-point lead on T.J. Bray, though Bray has one more game to play than does Rosenberg. He leads T.J. Bray 19.8 ppg to 18.6 ppg, or 32 total points. Princeton's last Ivy League scoring champion was Brian Taylor '84 in 1972 (Taylor entered with the Class of 1973), and Princeton could have the Ivy's second-leading scorer two straight years after Ian Hummer '13 finished second to Harvard's Wesley Saunders last year.
• Even though this is T.J. Bray's third year as a starter, and despite missing four games this season, Bray's senior campaign is already his highest scoring, with 375 points this year and 278 a year ago. He's at 931 career points and would need to average 23 ppg over the last three to become the 30th member of Princeton's 1,000-point club.
• At 375 points this season, T.J. Bray is within reach of becoming the 30th player in program history, all since 1954, to score 400 points in a season. He has had four former teammates reach the number, including Dan Mavraides '11, Kareem Maddox '11, Douglas Davis '12 and Ian Hummer '13. Mavraides, Maddox and Hummer in 2011 were the first Princeton players to reach 400 in a season since 2000.
• At 17-8, Princeton has clinched a winning season and made Mitch Henderson the first Princeton coach since John Thompson III '88 (Princeton coach 2000-04) to have winning campaigns in each of his first three seasons as Princeton coach. Henderson is the sixth Princeton coach to accomplish that.
• The biggest statistical difference between Princeton's 9-1 start and going 8-7 in the 15 games since is from beyond the arc. The Tigers were shooting .399 from distance in the 9-1 stretch and allowing just a .297 clip. In the 8-7 stretch since, Princeton is shooting .325 from 3-point range and allowing .350.
• The importance of 3-point shooting to the Tigers is also clear when looking at stats in wins versus losses. In wins, Princeton shoots .370 from distance. In losses, .322. Defense has also been important in determing the Tigers' outcome this season. In wins, Princeton allows a .410 overall FG clip and .302 from beyond the arc. In losses, it's .478 overall and .389 from 3-point range.
• During the 0-4 start to the Ivy season, Princeton allowed opponents to shoot .493 from the field overall and .380 from beyond the arc on the way to an average of 72.5 ppg. In the seven games since, Princeton has allowed opponents to shoot .379 from the field overall and .271 from beyond the arc on the way to 57.9 ppg. The wins have come despite Princeton's shooting percentage going down from the 0-4 start to going 5-2 since. The Tigers were .459/.327 overall/3pt during the winless streak (67.8 ppg) and .399/.310 since (63.3 ppg). Rebounding has also helped the Tigers turn it around, as Princeton was getting outrebounded by 6.5 rpg while going 0-4 and is outrebounding opponents by 2.0 rpg since.
• Princeton outshot Cornell from the field .490 to .341 in the game at Jadwin four weekends ago and outrebounded the Big Red 33-27, leading to a 69-48 win. Nolan Cressler (14) was the only Big Red player to reach double-figure points, while Spencer Weisz had a season/career-high 18, T.J. Bray added 17 and Steven Cook added 13.
• Columbia snapped Princeton's 20-game winning streak over the Lions in Jadwin Gym four weekends ago, doing so despite getting outshot from the field .444 to .404 and committing more turnovers, 13-9. Princeton led by 10 points less than two minutes into the second half, but Columbia went on a 10-0 run to tie it. From there, the game was never more than three points apart, and Columbia's Meiko Lyles hit a 3-pointer to give his team the lead for good with 28 seconds to go.
• This weekend, Princeton will go from playing the team ranked eighth in scoring defense (Cornell, 78.3 ppg allowed) the the team ranked second (Columbia, 63.4 ppg allowed).
• The top three teams in the Ivy in 3-pointers per game will be meeting this weekend, with Princeton first at 9.4 per game, Columbia second at 7.9 per game and Cornell third at 6.8 per game.
• Entering the week, Princeton had two national top-10 statistical rankings. The Tigers were No. 5 in fewest fouls (436) and fourth in 3-pointers per game (9.4).
• Entering the week, T.J. Bray had played his way into the national top 250 in nine statistical categories with a high of 16th in assist-to-turnover ratio at 3.0.
• Princeton is 13-3 this season when opponents score below 70 points and 4-5 when opponents reach 70. The Columbia home game was the first game that Princeton's opponent won despite not scoring at least 70 points, followed by the game at Yale and the home game against Harvard.
• Princeton is 14-3 this season when leading at the half this season and had won 22 straight such games before the home Columbia, road Yale and home Harvard contests.
• Princeton has a chance to break the program record for 3-pointers made in a season. The 1997-98 team made 265, and the Tigers are currently at 236. With three games to go, Princeton would have to average 10 3-pointers per game to break the record, just ahead of the team's current average of 9.44.
• Of Princeton's 1,324 field goal attempts this season, 661, or 49.9 percent, have been from beyond the arc.
• Princeton is 14-3 this season when holding opponents below 37 percent from beyond the arc and 3-5 when foes hit at least 37 percent of their treys.

• Columbia entered the week fifth in the nation in free throw percentage at .772. The Lions have three of the top four in the Ivy on the season overall in free throw percentage (Mullins, Lo, Rosenberg) and 3-point field goal percentage (Lo, Rosenberg, Lyles).
• The Lions are 13-1 this season when scoring 31 points by halftime and 10-1 when scoring 71 points.
• Alex Rosenberg (16.1 ppg), Maodo Lo (14.3) and Grant Mullins (11.7) account for 58.8 percent of the team's scoring this season. Seven players account for all of the team's starts, but only Lo and Isaac Cohen have started all 29 games.
• Nolan Cressler (16.3) and Devin Cherry (12.3) account for 44.3 percent of Cornell's scoring this season. Eight Big Red players have started a game this season, with Cressler, Cherry and Dwight Tarwater the only ones to start all 26 games.
• Columbia's 18 wins are its most since going 20-5 in 1969-70.

Mitch Henderson '98 is in his third season as Princeton's head coach. His overall record at Princeton is 54-31.
Under Henderson, Princeton is 29-8 at home, 25-14 in the Ivy League, and 17-3 in the Ivy League at home. Princeton is 42-11 when leading at the half under Henderson.
Henderson is the first Princeton coach since John Thompson III '88 (2000-04) to have winning seasons in each of his first three campaigns. He is the sixth Princeton coach to accomplish that, following Frederick Luehring (1912-20), Butch van Breda Kolff '44 (1962-67), Pete Carril (1967-96), Bill Carmody (1996-2000) and Thompson III '88 (2000-04).
Henderson is in ninth place on the Princeton all-time wins list, with predecessor Sydney Johnson '97 in eighth with 66 wins over four seasons. With 37 wins through his first two seasons, Henderson was fourth on the list of wins for Princeton coaches through their first two campaigns, behind Carmody (51), van Breda Kolff (39), and Carril (39).
Henderson was a second-team All-Ivy Leaguer in 1998, an honorable mention All-Ivy Leaguer in 1997, and was a two-time Ivy Rookie of the Week in 1994-95.
Henderson graduated as the fourth-leading assist man in program history (kept since 1974-75) and is now fifth, having been surpassed by one of his players, Ian Hummer '13. Henderson graduated fifth in career assists (kept since 1974-75) and is now eighth, having been passed by former teammate Gabe Lewullis '99, current San Diego Padre Will Venable '05 and Marcus Schroeder '10.
Henderson is one of seven Princeton alumni who are current Division I head coaches, including John Thompson III '88 (Georgetown), Joe Scott '87 (Denver), Mike Brennan '94 (American), Chris Mooney '94 (Richmond), Sydney Johnson '97 (Fairfield) and Craig Robinson '83 (Oregon State). The Tigers are second only to North Carolina (eight) in alumni as current D-I head coaches.
Prior to Princeton, Henderson coached at Northwestern for 11 seasons under his final head coach at Princeton, Bill Carmody, from 2000-11.
