Princeton Women’s Hockey Team Falls to St. Lawrence Saints
In a closely contested match on Saturday afternoon, the Princeton women’s hockey team faced off against the St. Lawrence Saints in Princeton, New Jersey. Despite dominating the stats with a significant 45-31 advantage in shots on goal, the Tigers ultimately fell to the Saints, who secured a narrow 1-0 victory.
Key Moment of the Game
The decisive moment came in the second period when Alexa Davis found the back of the net, scoring the only goal of the match. Davis received a precise pass from teammate Ella Nancarrow and raced up the ice to lift the Saints ahead of the Tigers.
Offensive Opportunities
Despite their shot advantage, Princeton was unable to capitalize on numerous opportunities throughout the game. The Tigers registered 35 shots on goal, of which 22 were on target, yet they could not penetrate the Saints’ defense. The team faced a potential turning point with a late power play but failed to translate the man-advantage into a scoring opportunity.
Next Steps for Princeton
