The Princeton women’s hockey team goes on the road this weekend for two key ECAC showdowns against Colgate and No. 10 Cornell, in a repeat of a double-header from earlier in the season.

The Tigers (10-9-4 overall, 8-4-4 ECAC Hockey) lost 1-0 to the Big Red (10-8-5, 9-2-5) in November and achieved a 3-2 victory over the Red Raiders (8-18-4, 4-8-4).

Cornell, which currently stands three points ahead of Princeton, is looking to close out its season with its first-ever top-four finish in league play. It promises to be a close contest, with Cornell averaging 2.48 goals a game to Princeton’s 2.4.
