Princeton Tigers Basketball

While Princeton, a member of the exclusive Ivy League, is perhaps better known for academics than basketball, the Princeton Tigers have been one of the more successful Ivy League basketball teams in recent decades. The Tigers have appeared in the NCAA March Madness postseason tournament 25 times including 7 trips to the Sweet 16 and one drive to the Final Four in 1965. Last season, in 2023, the Tigers surprised everyone by upsetting the heavily favored Arizona Wildcats and Missouri Tigers to reach the Sweet 16, where they eventually lost out to the Creighton Bluejays. Princeton Tigers basketball fans will be looking forward to 2023-24 with great hopes and expectations.
