PRINCETON, N.J. – The No. 10 Princeton Tigers gets into the heart of their conference schedule as they take on three Collegiate Water Polo Association (CWPA) opponents this weekend at Bucknell.
Princeton will take on the Saint Francis Red Flashes (11 a.m.) and Bucknell Bison (7 p.m.) on Saturday (Apr. 1) before a monster matchup against the reigning CWPA champion, No. 7 Michigan Wolverines (10:30 a.m.) on Sunday.
