Name: John Cruser Jr. (left) and Dave Cruser Sr.

Position: Facilities foreman (John) and crew person (Dave) in the athletics department. The identical twins work to make sure the athletic facilities are in top shape for student-athletes and fans by mowing the stadium grass, dusting the gymnasium floor, running the Zamboni over the ice rink and much more. They have put in a total of 71 years of service at the University, and are from a long line of family members who have worked at Princeton, including their mother and father.

Quote: "We get to meet some really great people, especially the athletes. We work really hard to get the facilities ready for them, and it's gratifying to know the students appreciate it." (John) "I like my job very much -- I look forward to coming to work every day. I get along well with everyone, and I feel like I'm capable of doing just about anything asked." (Dave)

Other interests: The two live across the street from each other in Hightstown, and enjoy spending time together outside of work watching stock and dirt car races as well as bowling.
