PRINCETON, N.J. – For the third straight week, the Princeton Tigers are receiving votes in the USA Today Coaches' Poll.

Stanford sits at the top of the poll, jumping from No. 3. Louisville climbed to No. 2, a seven-spot improvement from the week prior. Oregon, Connecticut and Oregon State round out the top five.

Ellie Mitchell was also named the Suburban Transit GoPrincetonTigers.com Athlete of the Week. She registered a double-double with 11 points and 14 rebounds in the victory over St. Francis-Brooklyn.

Princeton is currently 6-1 on the season and on a two-game winning streak with victories over Monmouth and St. Francis-Brooklyn. The Tigers head on the road to Marist this Saturday. Tip-off is set for 7 p.m.
