The rivalry is already brewing for the women’s hockey team as it heads to Cambridge, Mass. — where it pulled off a 2-1 regular-season upset win over Harvard — to play the Crimson in the ECAC quarterfinals this weekend.

Princeton (13-12-4 overall, 11-7-4 ECAC Hockey) faces No. 4 Harvard (18-6-5, 13-6-3) in a best-of-three playoff series. The team that wins two games will advance to the ECAC semifinals, which will be played the following weekend. Harvard finished third in ECAC Hockey standings, while Princeton came in sixth.

While the Tigers were hoping for home ice this weekend, they are ready for a challenge wherever they play, especially in Boston.
