The following article featuring Princeton forward Dan Bartlett appeared in the March 25 issue of the Daily Princetonian.
Over the past few weeks, there has not been a better forward in
the nation than Princeton junior Dan Bartlett. Bartlett has scored
in each of the Tigers’ last six games, including seven goals
in the Tigers’ five playoff games. After scoring both goals
in the Tigers’ 2-2 win against St. Lawrence in the ECAC
Hockey Tournament consolation game last Satruday, Bartlett was
named to the ECAC All-Tournament team. The Daily Princetonian
caught up with the Tigers’ leading scorer to discuss quirky
teammates, favorite classes and pre-game rituals.
Q: What was your “welcome to college” moment?
A: My “welcome to college” moment probably came during
preseason my freshman year when I realized how hard you have to
work on and off the ice to be successful. Specifically, I remember
almost drowning in the middle of the pool in Dillon [Gymnasium]
during our team swim workout and wondering how that related to
hockey.
Q: What was the greatest highlight of your sports career?
A: Last year, winning the Ivy League regular season title, the
ECAC [Hockey] tournament, and going to the NCAA tournament was the
highlight of my athletic career. Hopefully that will change this
weekend.
