PRINCETON, N.J. – The No. 13 Princeton Tigers registered two non-conference victories at DeNunzio Pool on Sunday afternoon, dropping No. 16 George Washington, 15-8 and then disposing Navy, 12-7.

The Tigers' defense shined, pitching a shutout over a 5:29 span of the second stanza, scoring five more times during that span. The Tigers led 10-3 at halftime before posting its third straight quarter with five goals to take a 15-5 advantage after 24 minutes, cruising to a victory.
