A star is born: Olivia Hutcherson leads No. 25 Princeton women’s basketball past Penn to open Ivy play
The Princeton women’s basketball team started the new year and Ivy League season right where they left off in 2025: coming from behind in the fourth quarter to scratch out victories on the road.
The Tigers’ newest victim was an old rival, the Penn Quakers, whom the Tigers outlasted, 74-68, at the Palestra on Saturday afternoon.
Penn suffered its 15th straight setback to Princeton, but if there is any such thing as a silver lining in losing, the Quakers can find one in this game. After outplaying Princeton for nearly three quarters of the game, the Quakers showed they are a legitimate contender in the Ancient Eight this season.
Here are three Tigers takeaways from No. 25 Princeton’s 11th consecutive win on the season:

The triumph, the ninth in a row for the No. 25 Tigers, may be the most memorable and improbable comeback in the storied history of Princeton women’s basketball.

Old habits die hard.
On Tuesday night at Jadwin Gymnasium, the Princeton women’s basketball team used yet another fourth-quarter comeback, its sixth of the season, to hold off the Seton Hall Pirates, 80-76, for its sixth win a row.
This time, the Tigers (8-1) rallied twice to overcome deficits, including a 14-point second-quarter hole and a five-point gap in the final stanza to hand the Pirates (4-1) their first setback of the season.
The win capped a three-game sweep by Princeton of BIG EAST teams for the second straight year.
