Princeton vs. St. Joe's: Jersey Jam Showdown at CURE Insurance Arena
Princeton men's basketball team is set to return to Trenton's CURE Insurance Arena for the third consecutive season as part of the Jersey Jam event. The Tigers will face off against St. Joseph's on Nov. 30 in a highly anticipated matchup. This will be the third consecutive meeting between Princeton and St. Joe's, with the teams having split the last two games.
The Tigers have undergone significant changes in their roster during the offseason, with key players like Xaivian Lee and Caden Pierce no longer with the team. The team now features a young and relatively untested lineup, eager to prove themselves on the court. Coach Mitch Henderson has prepared his team for a challenging schedule, including games against tough opponents like Kansas, Bucknell, and Vermont.
St. Joe's also brings local talent to the court, with Trenton native Deuce Jones joining the team this season. Jones, a sophomore guard, transferred to St. Joe's after an impressive freshman year at La Salle. The team also boasts Derek Simpson, a guard who previously played at Rutgers and is a key contributor to the squad.
Details about the game time and TV network broadcast will be announced at a later date. Presales for the event will begin on Wednesday, Sept. 10, with public ticket sales starting on Friday, Sept. 12. Fans can purchase tickets for the game on Ticketmaster.com.
