definitely difference guy
Schwartzman was definitely the difference in the first half. But our guy was the difference in the second.
guys harder remarkable senior tough
We are going to have to play them harder than we ever have before. They have remarkable senior leadership, and their guys are making tough shots.
easily guys lead respectful
I think the guys think of him in a very respectful way, as a guy who can very easily lead them. And they look at him as a friend.
finish guys scoring shots spread team unlike
I think they're the best-shooting team in the country. They spread their scoring out, and they have guys who can just finish their shots unlike a lot of teams.
carry hopefully ivy league
There was a little spark, so hopefully we can carry that into our Ivy League season.
clear game last lose reminder year
Every game is so important, especially in a year like this with so many upsets. You can't lose focus. After last year, I think the reminder is still clear enough.

I think, just like Syracuse the other day, we may have felt like we had our backs against the wall. This was a classic Princeton win.
kids play lacrosse
If I was US Lacrosse, I wouldn't let any kids play field until they were 10 or 12,
lacrosse way united-states
Until box lacrosse grows in the United States, it'll continue to be this way.
believe opportunity player
I believe that box lacrosse gives young people many more opportunities to excel in our game. If I had my choice, I would have every player under the age of twelve play box lacrosse exclusively or at least a majority of the time. The number of touches of the ball and the ability to develop better stick skills in a game of box lacrosse, far surpasses what happens to young people on a 110 x 60 yard field. Learning how to pass and catch in traffic, understanding how to shoot, and developing a sense of physicality are all positive traits developed by the box game.
head imagine listen
You can imagine him nodding his head as you listen to the tape.
against defense good team
You have to get possession. You can't play defense for as long as we did, especially against a really good team like Hofstra.
credit dynamic endless goes man princeton
What goes on with Princeton lacrosse is as much to the credit of him as to me and the players. He's a dynamic man with endless energy.
bunch confident create kids sit within
We've got a bunch of athletic, confident kids that play within our system, but we can't sit back anymore. We're going to have more fouls and create more turnovers.
