For the women’s hockey team, winter break holds a chance to
prove something to the world of college hockey.
Princeton (6-7-1 overall, 4-5-0 ECAC Hockey) already showed it
could hang with the class of the East, tying then-No. 8 Boston
College on Nov. 28 just a week after upending No. 4 St. Lawrence.
Now, the Tigers head to the Midwest to take on the formidable No. 3
University of Minnesota-Duluth (11-5-2), the defending national
champion.
After its trip to Duluth, Princeton will return to the East Coast
to take on two more top-10 opponents. While the Bulldogs may pose
the biggest challenge, the Tigers, aching for revenge, have circled
these East Coast games on their calendar. Princeton’s Ivy and
ECAC Hockey rivals No. 5 Dartmouth (7-3-1, 6-1-1) and No. 10
Harvard (4-4-3, 4-2-2) both visited Baker Rink and triumphed over
the Tigers earlier this year.
