Princeton Now 12th In Directors' Cup Standings
April 04, 2019 | General
Princeton finds itself in familiar territory in the Learfield IMG Directors' Cup standings after the latest release of the standings.
The Tigers have made a habit of being the top non-Power Five Conference school in the standings. Last year, for instance, Princeton was the only such team in the top 40 for the final standings.
Now, with points assigned for most of the winter sports, Princeton finds itself 12th in Division I, trailing only five Big Ten schools, two Pac 12 and ACC schools and one school each from the SEC and Big 12. Directly behind Princeton is Kentucky and then North Carolina State, and no other FCS school is ranked higher than 44th.
Princeton has received points this winter to date for women's hockey, wrestling, men's swimming and diving, men's indoor track and field and coed fencing. The Tigers will still get points for women's basketball.
Here are Princeton's all-time Directors' Cup finishes:
