My understanding is that Princeton has dropped us from their schedule, not the other way around. We would love to continue the series but the Tigers have shown no interest in renewing. Hopefully that changes in the future, as I agree they are both a traditional rival and a great showcase for us in NJ.

Yes. Princeton (specifically Gary Walters) dropped us. It is my understanding that this October's game will be the last between the schools for the forseeable future. Princeton will continue to play Lafayette and Lehigh, but our position on the schedule will be taken by Georgetown, Davidson or Marist. Very disappointing.

It must be because we win and make Princeton look bad. And Marist will not.
