NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP) Devin Cannady matched a career high with 29 points and seven 3-pointers, and Princeton beat Yale 71-52 on Friday night for its 12th straight win.

Cannady was 9 of 11 from the floor. Myles Stephens added 20 points on 9-of-16 shooting for Princeton, which shot 59 percent (26 of 44) from the field and 13 of 23 (56.5 percent) from long range.
