The women’s hockey team will face Harvard (12-7-3 overall, 11-3-2 ECAC Hockey) and Dartmouth (14-8, 10-6) on the road today in Cambridge, Mass., and Saturday in Hanover, N.H., respectively.

The Tigers were on an eight-game win streak that included notable victories over ECAC teams Brown, Quinnipiac and St. Lawrence, but they fell to Clarkson 3-2 in Baker Rink last Saturday, ending the streak.

Princeton’s strong defense has been a huge part of the team’s winning formula over the last several games. Junior goalkeeper Rachel Weber has notched an impressive six shutouts in her last 10 appearances with the help of the team’s strong, aggressive defense, holding opponents to an average of less than a goal per game.
