The Princeton women's lacrosse team is in the middle of a stretch that will see it play seven of eight games on Sherrerd Field. The Tigers just finished a run of four straight home games, and this coming Wednesday will be the first of three more in a row at home.
Up next, though, is the one road game in the month of March, and in fact a 35-day span. Princeton, ranked fifth this week, will be at Dartmouth Saturday for the 45th meeting with the Big Green.
Princeton has played six games to date, with five at home and only a 17-10 win at Virginia back on Feb. 25. Princeton's most recent game was this past Tuesday, when the Tigers fell 13-8 to Penn State, a Final Four team a year ago, for its first loss of the year.
While Princeton played a midweek game this week, Dartmouth will have had eight days off since its last outing, and both teams will be coming into this one after playing Top 10 teams. Dartmouth won its first four games of the season before losing to Columbia in its Ivy opener and, most recently, to USC 19-8 in a game that was tied 8-8 early in the second half. That game was played March 17.

Princeton, Cornell and Harvard are the lone unbeatens in the Ivy League standings, though no team has played more than two league games. Princeton (1-0) and Dartmouth (0-1) have played one each.
*Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â *Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â *
Princeton has won five of the last six meetings in the series, which dates to 1980. The Tigers have also won four of the last five games played in Hanover.
Princeton defeated Dartmouth 11-5 last year behind three goals from Olivia Hompe and 12 saves by Ellie DeGarmo.
*Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â *Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â *
Princeton leads the Ivy League in assists per game, scoring margin, points per game, ground balls per game and winning percentage.
Dartmouth leads the Ivy League in draw controls per game, a category in which Princeton ranks fifth.

Olivia Hompe ranks seventh all-time at Princeton with 203 career points. With two more, she would tie Lauren Simone with 205, and then with two more after that, she'd tie Kathleen Miller for fifth at 207.
Hompe currently is 19 points away from tying Erin McMunn for second place at 222. The school record appears safe; Crista Samaras is in first with 270. Hompe also fifth in goals scored at Princeton with 145 career goals and eight in assists at Princeton with 58.
As for this season, Hompe leads the Ivy League and is seventh in Division I with 3.50 goals per game.
Ellie DeGarmo ranks eighth at Princeton all-time with 377 saves.
*Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â *Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â *
Dartmouth's Kiera Vrindten is ninth in Division I in save percentage. Where does that leave her in the eight-team Ivy League? How about fourth.
The Ivy League actually has five goalies ranked in the top 12 in save percentage in Division I, with players ranked fourth, fifth, sixth, ninth and 12th. The one in fifth is Princeton's Ellie DeGarmo.
*Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â *Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â *
Princeton will begin its next three-game home stretch with a game Wednesday night against Syracuse.
