Preview: Princeton Tigers at Dartmouth Big Green HANOVER, N.H. (Interstat) — The Dartmouth Big Green look to get back to .500 in Ivy League play when they host the struggling Princeton Tigers in a men’s Division I basketball matchup Monday night at Leede Arena. Dartmouth (8-8) enters the contest after a 74-84 home loss to Penn on Saturday, which snapped a two-game winning streak. The Big Green have shown offensive firepower, notably in a 102-91 road win at Cornell on Jan. 10, but consistency has been elusive. A key for Dartmouth will be guard Connor Amundsen, who is coming off an 18-point performance against Penn. Amundsen dished out 10 assists in the high-scoring win over Cornell, demonstrating his dual-threat capability as both a scorer and facilitator for the Big Green offense. Princeton (6-12) arrives in Hanover seeking to end a four-game road losing streak. The Tigers are coming off a heartbreaking 80-87 overtime loss at Harvard on Saturday, a game in which they squandered a late lead. The defeat encapsulated a difficult season for Princeton, which has struggled in close games, including four losses by six points or fewer. The Tigers will lean on forward Malik Abdullahi, who recorded a double-double with 18 points and 10 rebounds in 41 minutes against Harvard. Abdullahi has been a bright spot, averaging 14.6 points and 6.3 rebounds over his last five contests. Support from Landon Clark (19 points, 8 rebounds vs. Harvard) and Jackson Hicke (17 points) will be crucial. Historically, Princeton has dominated the series, but this season’s trajectories suggest a competitive Ivy League battle. Dartmouth holds the better overall record and home-court advantage, while Princeton’s recent performances, despite losses, indicate they remain capable. The game tips off at 7 p.m. EST on Monday, Jan. 19, 2026, as both teams jockey for early position in the conference standings. Dartmouth visits Yale next on Jan. 30, while Princeton returns home to host Brown on Jan. 24.
