Bio: Born: July 10, 1930 in Bethlehem, PA. One of the most likable and dedicated coaches in basketball history, Pete Carril spent 43 years of his life committed to coaching excellence. After seven years at the high school level and one season as head coach at Lehigh University, Carril took over the basketball program at Princeton University in 1967. Upon his retirement at the end of last season, Carril was the only Division I coach to record 500 wins (525273) without ever providing athletic scholarships. In his first season at Princeton, Carril posted a 20-6 record, the first of ten 20-win-or-more seasons.
Featuring players that were often overmatched physically by opponents, Carril instilled a regimented, disciplined and fundamentally sound brand of basketball that made the Tigers a difficult opponent to play. Carril's Princeton teams won with textbook basics-an unselfish offense and team defense. A Bethlehem, PA, native, Carril's Tiger teams led the nation in scoring defense 14 of the past 21 seasons, including the last eight in a row. Over Carril's 29 seasons, Princeton won 514 games, recorded only one losing season, won 13 Ivy League Championships and earned 13 postseason tournament bids (11 NCAA, 2 NIT). In 1975, Carril led Princeton to the Ivy League's only NIT championship. Princeton's NCAA tournament appearances have been memorable, including a near-victory over then-number-oneranked Georgetown in 1989 (50-49), and a thrilling last second victory over defending national champion UCLA (43-41) in 1996. Carril currently serves as an assistant coach with the NBA's Sacramento Kings.
