PRINCETON, N.J. — Last Monday night in Baker Rink, with most
of its student body on a one-week break, Princeton beat Connecticut
8-1. The Tigers (7-10-2 overall, 3-8-1 ECAC) scored four times in
the first period and never looked back.
Before the season started, such a result would not have been a
surprise – the Tigers opened the year ranked No. 10 in the
nation, while the Huskies were picked to finish ninth in the AHA in
a coach’s preseason poll.
The Tigers’ other 18 games, however, have been far less
predictable. In a season plagued by injuries, wins like the
seven-goal victory over UConn have been hard to come by for the
Tigers. Princeton dropped its national ranking during a seven-game
winless streak that started in November and currently sits in 10th
in the ECAC.
