Preview

No. 15 Princeton unbowed by success, intends to scrap with No. 6 Creighton

For the third straight year, a No. 15 reached the Sweet 16. For the second straight season, a private school from New Jersey is the noisemaker in the NCAA Tournament.

Princeton coach Mitch Henderson said the Tigers received celebrity treatment since returning home from consecutive bracket-busting upsets of South No. 2 seed Arizona and No. 7 Missouri. Henderson and Princeton wade deeper into uncharted territory in a South Region semifinal game against sixth-seeded Creighton on Friday in Louisville.

"I was on a show today with Coach K (Mike Krzyzewski), and he asked me the same thing," Henderson said. "I was like, 'Well, you tell me. What do we do here?'"
