Sargeant with 7, Steuerer with 5

  • To lead Princeton in scoring at halftime. Those would be the two guards who have been most questionably absent from coach Scott's rotation all season. Now, they're getting minutes and the Tigers are looking reasonably good. Steuerer and Sargeant were a combined 4 of 6 from the floor.
  • Third for Princeton in scoring was Savage, who had four. That would be the returning leading scorer from a year ago who Scott has only now decided to give his starting job back.
  • All three of these capable players have only been inserted because of the injuries to Buffmire and Koncz, but it certainly seems odd that it took such a rash of injuries to get them into the rotation.
  • Unfortunately, all that only happened after the Tigers started 0-4 in Ivy play.
  • It remains to be seen if these guys will keep getting looks even when the Tigers return to full strength with Koncz and Buffmire.
