Nope. Unanimous POY for a reason

that last sequence really hurt not getting one rebound.. didnt help the refs swallowed the whistle on the clear off foul and then ignored the kid getting the rebound and walking halfway across the court with the ball.

but good effort

Not him.  The tall guy.  Layup after layup.  Size matters.

Tosan, not Llewellyn, was POY

Geez.  He looked awful in the first half.

He did, but he had a monster 2nd half.

We are aware our Achilles heal is our lack of beef inside, and while we have some nice recruits coming in, none is over 6'6". Maybe we'll get someone through the transfer portal.

Goddamn that was close. Needed a rebound late. Can't really complain about the lack of a foul call if only because they weren't calling fouls inside all game. Don't know what next year will look like but this was a fun team.

I didn't think the Princeton guy was much of a homer. He clearly wanted them to win but he didn't seem to be calling a biased game.

Attended the game in person, and as mentioned, the lack of rebounding at the end killed us. I went in with no expectations, but definitely let myself start believing until it fell away in the last 30 seconds. I don't think it made a difference, but did feel the officiating favored Princeton (I think they had only been called for 3 fouls total with about 5 minutes left in the 2nd). Other highlight of the game was Jeff Foote was honored as a legend of Ivy League basketball during one of the media timeouts, and he was in attendance with Wittman and Dale. Great memories.

Also started making some memories by taking my little guy to his first (of hopefully many more) Cornell sporting events. Don't think he was as disappointed in the game as I was, since he slept through the last 7 minutes of game time.

The should have asked Jeff to suit up--I understand they needed size this weekend.

I hope that all of the Big Three from the Sweet 16 team (Foote, Wittman, Dale) are doing well--I agree, semsox, they provided great memories for Cornell fans.

I wish I had a picture like that from 2010, but the Carrier Dome wanted to charge my then-18-month-old for a full-price ticket.

Looking back at how much that 18-month-old has cost me in hockey, I should have just taken him to the damn basketball game.

not sure.. but no way the Dome was charging you for a ticket for a child like that,

Way.  The ticket agent was very clear - every attendee, regardless of age, required a ticket.  I even remember asking someone at the game with a lap infant.  Sure enough, the kid needed a ticket.

Looks like that policy has been relaxed since Ticketmaster took over.  I guess when they're charging a 50% convenience fee, they can afford to let a few babies in the door for "free."

yeah. but that was the ncaa game you are talking about i thought?   Dome had no control over any of that,   Since i have been going to games there for 30+ years pretty much anyone under 3-4 did not need a ticket.
