The Princeton Series
The Tiger lead the series, 31-15-3, and have won every meeting dating back to 2004 when the Quakers beat them 2-1 in New Jersey.
 
Last Time We Met
Penn came back once but couldn't do it a second time as the Tigers earned a 2-1 win at Bedford Field last season. Beth Yeager got Princeton on the board less than 10 minutes into the contest, but Elita Van Staden leveled things midway through the second quarter for the Quakers. However, the Tigers took a lead they wouldn't relinquish when Sammy Popper scored with 48 seconds left before halftime. Penn outshot Princeton, 17-14, and forced Tigers keeper Robyn Thompson to make nine saves. At the other end, Frederique Wollaert had five stops.
 
Penn's Last Time Out
The Quakers were in New York City on Friday night and came away with a 2-0 Ivy League win over Columbia. The teams were tied at halftime, before Allison Kuzyk scored in the third quarter and Livia Loozen netted one with time expiring in the fourth. Wollaert had seven saves in pitching her first shutout of the season. Penn outshot Columbia on the day, 17-9 (10-7 SOG).
 
Stat Leaders
Kuzyk continues to lead Penn and is second among Ivy League players in goals, with seven. She has scored in five straight matches and six of the last seven for the Quakers. Loozen is second on the team with four goals, tying her for eighth among Ivy Leaguers. Courtney Kenah has six assists which leads Penn and is third among Ivy players, while Meghan McGinley has four and Julia Ryan has three. At the other end, Wollaert is third among Ivy goalies in goals-against average (1.85) and fourth in both saves per game (5.78) and save percentage (.743).
