hahaha, I'm just thinking that I can't see Princeton not being sucessful in something. I would think that either they start putting together a stronger team or they drop the program. Just a thought. However, I'm naive...so who knows )

Well since Princeton is Ivy league they cannot give out scholarships so that doesnt help their program and since it is so hard to get into, the kids on the team all have to be practically geniouses. I doubt they would ever drop the program though because they don't really put any money into to it to begin with so I'm sure it does not really cost them too much.

They did to the FF back in 98? They might be bad now, but there are plenty of teams who haven't been.
