Ivy Hoops Online correspondent George “Toothless Tiger” Clark brings us the press conference for No. 19 Princeton women’s basketball following a 73-67 loss for Princeton (17-2, 5-1 Ivy) to Columbia (14-5, 5-1) at Jadwin Gym Friday night:
Clark recaps how Columbia notched its second Associated Press Top 25 win in program history:
The Princeton Tigers men’s basketball team entered Friday night’s contest against the Cornell Big Red with two unusual streaks on the line. The Tigers hadn’t missed a free throw in two full games. They also hadn’t won a road game the entire season.
Only one streak ended, and it wasn’t the one Mitch Henderson’s club was hoping for as the Big Red streaked past Princeton, 87-64, at Newman Arena in Ithaca.
Ivy Hoops Online correspondent George ‘Toothless Tiger” Clark recaps a 63-53 win for Princeton men’s basketball (7-13, 3-2 Ivy) over Brown (7-11 1-4) at Jadwin Gym Saturday afternoon:
Neither rain, nor sleet, nor a winter storm on the East Coast could keep the No. 20 Princeton women’s basketball team from grinding out another road win, 58-49, over Brown on Saturday afternoon at the Pizzitola Sports Center in Providence, R.I.
HANOVER, N.H. – When Dartmouth made its inaugural appearance in the Ivy League Tournament last March, Kareem Thomas was what in hockey parlance is called a healthy scratch, he never saw the court.
In fact, other than blowouts, Thomas never played more than two minutes in any game as a freshman as he struggled to adjust to the college game.
Fast forward a few months, and Monday night everyone at Leede Arena knew who was getting the ball in a tied game on the final possession, including the Princeton coaching staff: Kareem Thomas.
If it’s true that cats have nine lives, Princeton women’s basketball has nearly exhausted its entire complement only four games into the Ivy League season.
There’s no place like home.
Playing in the friendly confines of Jadwin Gymnasium for the first time in 2026, the No. 22 Princeton women’s basketball team (15-1, 3-0 Ivy) raced past the Dartmouth Big Green, 69-41, to remain unbeaten in Ivy play Saturday.
Taking the court with a depleted roster, the Tigers led wire-to-wire for the second straight game and were never seriously challenged by the Big Green.
Princeton was led by its junior tandem of guards, Ashley Chea and Skye Belker. Chea led all scorers with 16 points on 5-for-13 shooting, while Belker chipped in 14 points, two rebounds, two assists and three steals.
Though the Tigers didn’t paint a masterpiece today, they nevertheless prevailed for the 16th straight time over Dartmouth at Jadwin, a streak that dates all the way back to the 2008-09 season.
Here are three Tiger Takeaways from Princeton’s 13th consecutive win, their longest winning streak since the 2023-24 season:
