Princeton men's basketball team advances to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA tournament after a convincing victory over Missouri in the second round. The team, nicknamed "Sweetness," dominated the game, leading by as many as 20 points in the second half. Junior forward Ryan Schwieger led the way for the Tigers with 23 points, while senior guard Jaelin Llewellyn added 18 points and five assists.
The game was played in front of a packed crowd at the Greensboro Coliseum in North Carolina, with many Princeton fans in attendance to cheer on the team. The Tigers played with confidence and poise, executing their game plan to perfection and never letting Missouri get within striking distance in the second half.
The victory marks a historic moment for the Princeton basketball program, as this is the first time they have advanced to the Sweet 16 since 1989. Head coach Mitch Henderson praised his team's performance, calling it a "special moment" and crediting their hard work and dedication.
The Tigers will now face off against the top-seeded Gonzaga Bulldogs in the Sweet 16, a daunting challenge but one that the team is ready for. They have been playing their best basketball of the season in the tournament so far, and will look to continue their impressive run against one of the best teams in the country.
