Since that biography you reference in 2006, the Princeton men won 3 out of the previous 4 EISL titles (Ivy League + Navy). They are heavily heavily favored in 2010 after blowing out Harvard several weeks ago. <br /><br />While Pete Carrill is tough to top by Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6252058096186566346.post-59030530831330413532010-01-19T07:43:22.991-05:002010-01-19T07:43:22.991-05:00Gadowsky could have had some even greater teams if...Gadowsky could have had some even greater teams if he didn't let his ego get in the way of bettering his squads. He is a good coach--there's no doubt about that--but he's somebody with a penchant for needing to be in absolute, 110% control of everything. Anything that might possibly suggest otherwise, he will do whatever it takes to assert his authority.

Here is what I learned from the profile of their coach, Rob Orr:<br /><br />"Entering his 28th season at Princeton, Orr has compiled a very impressive 251-38 (.869) career dual meet mark, including a 218-22 (.908) record in the EISL.

Clearly, that was an oversight, one that TB will correct. TB also stands by his selection of Gadowsky. As for John Humenik, he is currently the executive director of CoSIDA, the sports information association.
