first-round opponent; seven of their first round losses were by fewer than ten points. In 1989, Princeton took first-ranked Georgetown down to the wire, leading by eight points at halftime before losing 50–49. Had the Tigers won, they would have been the first #16 seed to defeat a #1 seed since the NCAA began seeding the tournament field in 1979. Seven years later, Carril's final collegiate victory was an upset of defending national champions UCLA in the first round of the NCAA tournament in 1996 by a score of 43–41, in what is considered one of the greatest upsets of all time. Carill's career collegiate coaching record, including one season at Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, was 525–273. He was enshrined in both the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame and the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1997, following his retirement from Princeton. Sacramento Kings Carril was an assistant coach for the Sacramento Kings of the National Basketball Association for 10 years until his retirement in 2006. After Rick Adelman became Sacramento's head coach before the 1998–99 season, Carril helped Adelman install the Princeton offensive game plan and oversaw the Kings' development into one of the NBA's most potent offensive teams. During his tenure, the Kings were noted for their quick-passing offense, as well as their ability to stymie double teaming attempts from their opponents. In 2007, he volunteered as a coach with the Washington Wizards. He subsequently rejoined the Kings as an assistant for the 2009 season. Personal life Carril was married to Dolores Halteman. Together, they had two children: Peter and Lisa. They eventually divorced. Carril suffered a heart attack in 2000, which spurred him to quit smoking Macanudo cigars altogether. He died August 15, 2022 at Penn Hospital in Philadelphia. He was 92, and suffered a stroke prior to his death.
