We see the occasional debate about great defensive games.  Princeton frequently leads D1 in fewest points allowed.

However, the broadcast team for the CMU-Princeton commented that Princeton will hold the ball for 4 seconds before passing, and that 25 of their first 29 possessions showed Princeton not shooting the first shot in the possession until there was less than 10 seconds on the shot clock.

46-all;  2:38 left.

Tartans by 2 with 24.2 secs remaining.

There have been too many missed FT's by both teams.  Both teams will be replaying this one!

Tartans make the layup.  CMU 50-46. 0:10.

Princeton travels.

CMU at the line...6.1 left.

CMU 51-46. Final!

I want to give Pat Coleman a karma point for his contribution to the CMU victory tonight.  :D :D :D

He sacrificed access to D3hoops.com by virtue of the server upgrade.  This allowed the Tartans the "stealth" necessary to "sneak up" on a D1 opponent.  Had the entire cyberworld been focusing on this web site, it might not have occurred!   ;) ;)

We all know that if it isn't on D3Hoops.com, it probably didn't happen...You know,  the tree falls in the forest thing!   :D :D :D

Otherwise, a few in the intelligentsia with secret logins and passwords were able to chronicle the event for posterity!  ::) ::) ;D :D

Congratulations to Carnige Mellon on the big win.

And congratulations to Ralph for breaking his own personal record for smilies in a single post.  :D

Oh David, if you're gonna "step on Superman's cape", there had better be lots of smiles!  :D

Pat Coleman

Hah ... unfortunately the server upgrade had to happen sometime. Glad to support the cause. :)

CMU played really well and deserve all the praise in the world for their huge win. I was at the game and you could see CMU's confedence grow as the game went on. The slow pace of the game didnt seem to bother the team much but it was obvious that CMU was trying to push the tempo without much luck. Great win for the program.

On another note. Priceton's program is a mess. The players dont seem to respond to the coaching staff and just dont seem like they want to be there. Its too bad to see a program so rich in tradition in such a sorry state.

Congratulations to the Tartans on their win over Princeton.  CMU fans must be delirious this season, and appropriately so.  It looks like a season and team to remember; full of senior leadership and lots of great basketball.  I'm looking forward to seeing the Tartans when they come to Newport News to play the Captains of CNU.  It wasn't too long ago that we enjoyed the level of success that you are experiencing today (and hopefully we'll do so again soon).  I hope we give your guys all they can handle!

CMU is getting their fair share of accolades but the true test is ahead of them as winning conference is what its all about to move to the next level. 

After a game against Bluffton they travel to the northeast to begin an arduous road games against a much improved Brandies and an always combative NYU team.  Next weekend will set the tone for the Tartans season to see if they can weather the challenges.

Consistent play and continuous improvement by the team will keep the Tartans at the head of UAA.
