Northeastern will face Princeton in the London Basketball Classic Championship game after both winning their respective semi-final openers on Thursday evening at the Copper Box Arena in Stratford, London.
The Huskies secured their place with a dramatic 69-67 finish thanks to Joe Pridgen’s game winning alley oop in overtime, while the Tigers rode British rising star Tosan Evbuomwan to a 74-66 win over Army West Point.
