Dartmouth at No. 15 Princeton
GAMETIME: Saturday, Sept. 15 at 12 noon
2008 RECORDS: Princeton (3-1, 0-0 Ivy); Dartmouth (0-3, 0-0 Ivy)
SERIES RECORD: Princeton leads 20-7-2, is 9-3-1 at home

The 15th-ranked Princeton field hockey team opens its home schedule on Saturday when Dartmouth visits Class of '52 Stadium on the first day of Ivy League games this season. The Tigers are the three-time defending Ivy League champion and have dropped just one league game over the past three seasons.
Princeton started the season 3-0 before a 3-2 double overtime loss at Connecticut in its last outing. The Tigers led the game 1-0 and 2-1 but were unable to hold on as UConn came from behind for the win despite being outshot and outcornered by Princeton. Junior Christina Bortz and freshman Katie Reinprecht scored in the game for Princeton, while junior goalkeeper Cynthia Wray made six saves.
The loss, coupled with an 11-1 midweek win at Lehigh helped Princeton jump two spots to No. 15 in the STX/NFHCA Coaches Poll. The Tigers were ranked 16th in the preseason poll, then dropped two spots to No. 17, despite winning both of its games, in the second poll. Connecticut, now ranked fourth but then ranked fifth, is the only ranked team Princeton has met so far this season. The Tigers have four additional ranked teams on their schedule. The most recent one is No. 12 Penn State, which Princeton visits next Wednesday.
Senior Holly McGarvie continues to lead the Tigers in scoring with nine points on four goals and an assist despite being held off the scoreboard against UConn for the first time this season. Four Tigers?seniors Candice Arner, Bortz, Katie Reinprecht and freshman Kathleen Sharkey?are tied for second on the team with seven points each from three goals and one assist. In total, eight players have scored goals this season and 13 have recorded assists. Senior Sarah Reinprecht, with two, is the only player with more than one assist.
Junior Cynthia Wray made her first start of the season in goal at UConn and made six saves. Sophomore Jennifer King started the previous three games and has allowed just one goal in 175 minutes.
The Tigers open their Ivy League schedule on Saturday when Dartmouth visits Class of '52 Stadium. It is the first time that Princeton will play its league opener against Dartmouth since the 1989 season. The Tigers opened league season against Cornell from 1990-1999 and have opened the league season against either Columbia or Yale every year since.
Princeton is 20-7-2 all-time against Dartmouth and is 9-3-1 at home. The Tigers have won the last three games with Dartmouth and have taken 18 of the last 19 meetings from the Big Green. Last season Princeton won 4-1 in Hanover. Bortz scored twice in the win with seniors Katie Kinzer and Kristin Schwab also scoring.
Dartmouth is 0-3 this season and has been shut out in all three games at home. The Big Green lost its season opener 2-0 to Massachusetts, then suffered 5-0 and 3-0 losses to Northeastern and Providence.
All eight Ivy League teams open their league slate on Saturday. In addition the Princeton-Dartmouth game, Columbia visits Brown, Penn travels to Cornell, and Yale is at Harvard. Cornell and Yale also have non-league games scheduled for Sunday. Click here for complete league standings and schedules.
