Fullback Hilary Worthen and wing Scott Robertson are the biggest question marks for the Princeton game. Worthen is suffering from a charley horse sustained in the Penn game which kept him out of practice all week. And Robertson may have a torn cartilege, which would probably sideline him for the rest of the season...
...last 35 years, Princeton has had only two head coaches, Charley Caldwell and Joe Colman. Colman served under Caldwell and has been at the helm for 12 years now.
