PRINCETON - The Princeton women's hockey team closes out the first part of the season this weekend with a pair of games at Syracuse on Friday and Saturday. The games will mark the first time the Tigers and Orange have met on the ice.

Princeton will look to bounce back in the win column this weekend after dropping both ends of last weekend's series at St. Lawrence and Clarkson as the Tigers were held to just a single goal. On Friday at St. Lawrence, the Saints broke a 1-1 tie with five minutes left in regulation and added an empty netter to top the Tigers. A day later, Clarkson got on the scoreboard midway through the second period and added two third period goals in a 3-0 win.

Sophomore Danielle DiCesare tallied Princeton's lone goal over the weekend and continues to top the team with 15 points on seven goals and eight assists. Her seven goals is tied for the team lead in goals with classmate Heather Landry, while sophomore Paula Romanchuk has a team-high nine assists. The trio sits atop the Princeton scoring charts and they are the only three members of the team with double-digit point totals.
