Princeton Tabbed Fifth in US Lacrosse Rankings
June 11, 2018 | Women's Lacrosse
Here is what US Lacrosse Magazine had to say about the Tigers:
5. PRINCETON
2018 record: 13-6 (6-1 Ivy League)
Last seen: Falling by six to national finalist Boston College in the second round of the NCAA.
Senior starts lost: 51 of 228 (22.4 percent)
Senior scoring departing: 90 of 375 (24.0 percent)
Initial forecast: It took a while for Princeton to get moving in 2018, but narrow losses to Syracuse and Maryland kickstarted the Tigers' drive to the Ivy title. With nearly 80 percent of its starting corps and over 75 percent of its scoring returning, Princeton is ready for a return to the NCAA quarterfinals and possibly a semifinal appearance. The Ivy League will be difficult sledding in 2019 with resurgent teams like Dartmouth, Columbia and Brown adding to the depth of Penn's excellence and an expected bounce back of Cornell. The Tigers return Kyla Sears, who had 83 points leading the offense in 2018. Sam Fish's improvement during the season aided the Tigers' success behind the strength of eight games with at least 10 saves.
