Princeton men’s basketball falls in Myrtle Beach Invitational to Wright State, 80-62

Facing the Wright State Raiders for the first time in program history, the Tigers lost by 18 points, 80-62, to a hot-shooting, energized team that moved the ball well, protected the defensive glass and converted open threes, all things the Tigers usually take pride in doing themselves.
Princeton coach Mitch Henderson didn’t mince words after the game.
