Okay, so TigerBlog has told you that you can now get every day's entry on goprincetontigers.com.
If you're bookmarking, that would be goprincetontigers.com/sports/tigerblog.
The issue that TigerBlog is having is a logistical one. He had been posting the first few paragraphs each day here, with a link that takes you to the webpage. There have been two issues.
First, he writes each day's entry and then sets it to go live shortly after midnight, both on blogspot (the old platform) and on goprincetontigers.com. He then takes the goprincetontigers.com link and pastes it onto blogspot after the text of a few paragraphs.
Unfortunately, that link doesn't seem to work. He needs the link once the story goes live, except it's going live after midnight. What to do. What to do.
Second, even as he's tried to steer people to the main webpage, readership numbers on blogspot continue to grow. Old habits die hard, it appears.
Oh well. He'll keep working on it. As long as you read it somewhere, everything is good.
In the meantime, there are these subjects to cover, all of which involve overdue congratulations:
* For starters, congratulations to Andrei Iosivas on being selected in the sixth round of the NFL Draft last weekend. The common reaction seemed to be the obvious one — Orange and Black to a team whose colors are orange and black. That works out well.
The Princeton wide receiver joins a team that has a good a chance as any to be in the Super Bowl this coming season. Certainly the Bengals have the franchise quarterback in place.
Traditionally, from what TigerBlog could find, a sixth-round pick has just under a 50 percent chance of making the roster but has close to a 90 percent chance to be on the practice squad if not the active roster.
Of course, players drafted in the late rounds or who are undrafted free agents help their cause considerably if they play special teams. Iosivas will certainly have every opportunity to show what he can do as both a receiver and on special teams. TB would guess that Iosivas' orange and black days are far from over.
Iosivas had two Princeton teammates who signed undrafted free agent contracts. Offensive lineman Henry Byrd signed with the Broncos, while linebacker Matthew Jester signed with the Rams.
* Congratulations also go out to the women's water polo team, who rolled to the CWPA championship this past weekend at DeNunzio Pool. The Tigers defeated St. Francis 8-3 in the semifinal and then Harvard 12-8 in the final, after Harvard had defeated the seven-time defending champion Michigan in the other semifinal.
Princeton will now play in the NCAA tournament in Stockton, Calif., this Friday night at 9 Eastern, as the 10th-ranked Tigers take on No. 6 Cal in the quarterfinal round. Princeton is in the NCAA tournament for the fourth time in program history, after making it in 2012, 2013 and 2015.
* The women's tennis team, which won its seventh Ivy League title in the last eight seasons, found out its NCAA tournament draw Monday night. The Tigers will travel to Charlottesville, where they will take on Fordham in the first round Friday at 1. The winner of that match gets the winner of Virginia, ranked 11th, and LIU.
Fordham is the Atlantic 10 champion, something the team accomplished with its 4-1 win over Virginia Commonwealth in the league tournament final. VCU had beaten Fordham 4-3 during the regular season. The Rams are also 0-3 against the Ivy League, with losses to Columbia, Yale and Brown.
Daria Frayman was named the Ivy League Player of the Year, which is hardly surprising, given her No. 7 individual national ranking. Frayman and Neha Velaga were named first-team All-Ivy in singles, and Frayman and Grace Joyce — ranked 26th nationally — were named first-team All-Ivy in doubles.
* And then there's Sondre Guttormsen. The Olympic pole vaulter, who is already a three-time NCAA champion at Princeton, did it again, breaking all of his own records with a personal best vault of 5.90 meters, which is 19.36 feet, last weekend in Texas.
That vault is a new school and Ivy League record, as well as the best among NCAA pole vaulters this year — and actually pole vaulters anywhere in the world. Yes, that's how good Guttormsen is.
Sondre, his brother Simen and the rest of the Tigers go for another Triple Crown this weekend at the Ivy League Heps track and field championships at Franklin Field in Philadelphia.
