Notes
– Baumann bounced back from a scoreless night at Penn to lead all scorers with 17 points, and Foley chipped in 16 off the bench for Columbia.
– Schroeder scored a career-high 12 points for Princeton, while surprise starter Kevin Steuerer capped off a very nice weekend with 10 points and four assists in 34 minutes and Strittmatter contributed in a reserve role with 12 points.
– The Tigers jumped out to a 7-1 lead and never trailed in the game.
– Princeton recorded 16 assists on its 17 field goals, while Columbia was held to just six assists against 15 turnovers.
– The Lions owned the glass, rebounding at 40.7 percent offensively while holding the Tigers to 24.0 percent at their end, however second-chance points were even at 11 per side.
– Princeton didn’t do itself any favors at the line, where it was just 12 of 23 on free throws (52.2 percent), compared to 13 of 15 (86.7 percent) for Columbia.
– Both teams are on the road next weekend, as the Lions head up to Providence to face a suddenly hot Brown (9-16, 4-6 Ivy) squad on Friday, February 23 at 7:00 pm ET, while Princeton will travel to Dartmouth (8-15, 3-7 Ivy) looking for revenge.
