Princeton: Expect to be challenged for league lead by healthy Quakers
An open letter to the students of Princeton University:A year ago we published an article in your paper filled with insults and personal attacks against your student body because we knew our team was a year away from being ready to compete with your team.One year later, the Quakers are ready to resume the premier rivalry in all of Ivy League sports.Meanwhile, your pathetic writer is too busy thinking of cliched and tired insults ? his garbage is on this page somewhere.In fact, he highlights exactly why Princeton will not run over Penn tonight as it has every other Ivy opponent.Princeton, and its basketball team, is too interested in its image.Meanwhile, the 1997-98 Quakers are gritty survivors.That Penn even has the chance to tie for the Ivy League lead tonight is a testament to its perseverance through injury and setback.Sophomore Geoff Owens, who was forced to sit out the season after being diagnosed with hypertension, was just the first and most prominent Quaker player to be confined to the pine.
