The Princeton women's hockey team's season can best be described as one with some very high highs and some very low lows.
From their unpredictable 2-1 win against No. 1 New Hampshire to their disappointing game three loss during a best-of-three series against Clarkson during the ECAC Hockey quarterfinals, the Tigers (14-12-6 overall, 11-8-3 ECAC Hockey) experienced a rollercoaster of emotions during their season. Princeton finished fifth in the ECAC regular season behind Harvard, St. Lawrence, Dartmouth and Clarkson, but only a few crucial moments kept the team from a higher seed.
The Tigers won just two of their first seven games, and even tied Quinnipiac - against whom they had been 5-0-0 - but made a remarkable turnaround against No. 1 New Hampshire. The Wildcats had won seven straight and accumulated a 37-4-2 all-time record against Princeton, but the visiting Tigers marred New Hampshire's then-perfect season behind senior forward and captain Lizzie Keady's game-winning goal three minutes, five seconds into the third period. Princeton held on for the 2-1 win.
