PHILADELPHIA (AP) – The Princeton Tigers capped off a perfect regular season with a hard-fought victory over their rival.
When the final buzzer sounded, Courtney Banghart and her Tigers could finally celebrate their remarkable accomplishment – going 30-0.
After a subdued celebration Saturday when the Tigers beat Columbia to clinch the Ivy title, Princeton enjoyed Tuesday night’s 55-42 win over Penn. The Tigers jumped with each other at center court celebrating their achievement.
Princeton was then presented with the Ivy League championship trophy which they held aloft much to the delight of the many Tigers fans who made the 45-minute trip down from campus. One fan held up a sign saying “Go Tigers! 30-0 Perfect!”
The 13th-ranked Tigers became the 15th team to enter the NCAA Tournament unbeaten.
