The excitement of Beth Stella's game-tying goal with less than five minutes to play Saturday evening against Penn was dulled by a late strike from the Quakers, allowing Penn to retake the lead with just 1:39 to go on the way to a 3-2 win.

The game was the Princeton career finale for head coach Julie Shackford after 20 seasons and for Princeton's nine seniors. Shackford ends her Tiger career with 203 victories, eight NCAA tournament appearances, seven Ivy League titles and a memorable run to the 2004 NCAA College Cup semifinals.

Penn got on the board first with an 11th-minute goal from Clara Midgley, who went on to break Princeton's hearts with her 89th minute goal that won the game. Kaitlyn Moore put Penn up 2-0 in the 42nd minute to take that advantage into halftime.

Princeton rallied when Lauren Lazo scored her eighth of the season in the 49th minute, this one coming when she redirected an end-line crossing pass from Tyler Lussi to halve the deficit at 2-1. Capping a fury of pressure in the second half, Beth Stella fired a shot from the top of the box in the 86th minute, bounding it off the crossbar to tie the game at 2-2 and send Roberts Stadium jumping.

The tie lasted just 3:06 before Midgley got loose on a breakaway and won a 1-on-1 battle with Tiger goalkeeper Darcy Hargadon to retake the lead and stun the hundreds on hand for Shackford's and the seniors' finale.
