No. 11 Princeton 17, Navy 11
The Tigers scored the first three tallies as they held Navy without a goal to begin the game. In front, 4-2, after eight minutes, Princeton had three different goal scorers in the second stanza as it kept Navy at bay and took a 9-5 lead into halftime. The home team posted the first goal of the third period, but over the next three minutes, Princeton added on five more tallies, making the score, 14-7. Navy wouldn't get any closer than six the rest of the way.
The Tigers will now head open to host the Princeton Invitational (Sept. 8-10). Head coach Luis Nicolao's team will take on Chapman (5:00 p.m.) and Johns Hopkins (8:30 p.m.) on Friday.
