The reason I'm sending the kudos is that despite being a diehard Princeton fan, the Penn women revealed a lot of character this year. A friend, a Penn alum, touted their potential before the early-season game at the Palestra, when four-time defending champion Princeton romped by 31. So much, I thought, for Penn's being any good.
Well, fast forward throughout the season, and both teams went into Tuesday night's contest tied for the Ivy lead. Oh, I figured, given the early-season romp, the Tigers would romp at home because, well, they were the four-time defending champions and at home.
Penn won by 16.
On the road.
For the title.
Well played.
No, very well played.
Title, and NCAA berth, well earned.
