2022 Video Snapshot: Princeton
- Updated: July 13, 2022
Even though Princeton lost a ton from a team that won 11 games last season the 2022 squad is bigger, stronger faster and deeper than the team that preceded them. That is a scary thought for their Greater Miami Conference foes. In year two under head coach Andre Parker this program appears to be well on its way back to finding the bliss of its glory days that it had under Pat Mancuso in the ‘70’s, ‘80’s and ‘90’s.
Division I, Region 4
2021 RECORD: 11-2, 6-1 GMC
COACH: Andre Parker (11-2 at Princeton, one year; 88-37 overall, 12 years)
