Numbers to Consider

The junior guard tandem of Cannady and Stephens for Princeton combine to average 32.8ppg. That’s 49.4% of the Tiger’s scoring.

Princeton pace of play (20.1 second average possession length …. only two teams in all of D-1 b’ball any slower) will drive you nuts if you’re not ready for it.

41%: The rate at which “3’s” fall for Princeton. That accuracy is good for 35th best in the nation. It’s also represents the share of all points scored by Princeton.

Ball Security: Lehigh shines in comparison to Princeton, with National Top 10 rankings in both Steals and Turnover percentage on offense.

After a slow and foul-prone start to this season, James Karnick has turned it around.
Rebounds: 11 in first 3 games…………….25 in second 3 games
PFs: 14 in first 3 games………….5 in second 3 games
FG%: 37.5% in first 3 games………..60.0% in second 3 games

Trav, sorry I can’t get down to the game. I’ll catch up with you on the 6th when we host Yale.
