| • Princeton's four goals were its most against Harvard since a 5-0 win in 2006. • The nine total goals were a series record. The previous record was seven, in a 7-0 Harvard win in 1995 and a 6-1 Harvard win in 1997. • Tyler Lussi's four goals tied a program record for single-game points (eight) and goals. Four previous players had scored four goals in a game, most recently Vicki Anagnostopoulos '10 on Oct. 21, 2006, also against Harvard. • Tyler Lussi's four goals give her 15 on the season and 25 for her career in what was the sophomore's first-career four-goal game. With her last goal, she broke the program record for goals through a player's freshman and sophomore years (24, Linda DeBoer '86), and she's now scored the third-most goals in a season in program history. Current assistant coach Esmeralda Negron '05 had 20 in 2004, while Jen Hoy '13 had 18 in 2012. • Tyler Lussi has scored 13 goals in the month of October. • Lussi's 25 career goals tie her for eighth in program history. She's second among active players as senior teammate Lauren Lazo has 26. • Sophomore goalkeeper Hannah Winner made her second career start and first against an Ivy League team. She started against Colgate last season. • Freshman Vanessa Gregoire assisted on three of the goals, becoming the first Tiger since Caitlin Blosser '12 (2010 vs. Seton Hall) to notch three assists in a game. Princeton has had one four-assist game, from Diana Matheson '08 in 2007 vs. Rutgers. |
