Scott Kaufmann, Princeton AD, has made a call to Fox 19 about having the Princeton/Middies game on TV on Feb. 21st. Wonder why Kaufmann didn't ask Lebo PRIOR to contacting Fox to discuss if this was doable? Wouldn't that have been the more courteous/professional thing to have done in this case?

you have it vet---I believe Princeton is off that Fri.night(not sure), while the Middies have a tough game vs. Lakota West the night b4. This Middie team has struggled when playing on consecutive nights, and we want to be at our best vs. Princeton(now ranked #22 in the NATION).
 
If I was Lebo(and Ronai), I would just cancel the game. Let Princeton whine and complain,while everyone calls us as afraid to play the Vikings. Great motivation IF we play them down the road in the tourney.

I agree Spider! Princeton did not want to play at the Cintas Center when it was offered. Ticket take was $24000 approx. They wanted home court advantage. If they are as good as they think, it should not matter where you play. Post season will not be o their home floor! Kauffman set Lebo up to look like a fool if we said no. This is where the OSHAA should have stepped in! jmo

or the GMC commissioner.

I believe Millett Hall was also offered, since Roberts(Middies) and Williams(Vikings) are going to Miami next year.
Princeton DOES play Hamilton on 2/20, so they also play the night b4.
 
Kicker now being we have a make-up at Sycamore and Princeton has one at(?) Oak Hills
 
After watching Princeton play the NC Academy last week, I am VERY impressed with the Princeton team(no surprise).
 
I also believe that our team is getting better and will be up for the game.
