After suffering a 2-1 home loss to Yale on Dec. 3, the women’s hockey team’s conference record stood at a dismal 3-6-1. The Tigers were in danger of failing to qualify for the ECAC tournament for the first time in 10 years. After losing to the Bulldogs, however, the Tigers (16-12-1 overall, 13-8-1 ECAC) quickly turned things around and are now firing on all cylinders.
In its last 15 games, Princeton has had 13 victories and has scored three or more goals 12 times, and junior goalie Rachel Weber has shut out six opponents.
The Tigers have once again made their way into the ECAC Hockey tournament and are looking to burst out of the first round for the first time in five years. Fourth-seeded Princeton will host fifth-seed Quinnipiac (20-11-3, 12-9-1) in a best-of-three series this weekend at Baker Rink.
