No. 8/8 Princeton Opens N.Y. Capital Region Trip With Win at Union
November 15, 2019 | Women's Ice Hockey
Princeton will close the weekend Saturday at 3 p.m. at RPI.
After a first-period Union goal from Grace Heiting gave the Dutchwomen the lead 13 minutes into the game, Sarah Fillier, in her first game back after missing last weekend to play in a pair of exhibition games with Team Canada, took the puck up the ice and sent a cross-goal pass to Solveig Neunzert, who fired it home to tie the game.

Just 13 seconds later, Fillier curled around in the corner and found Maggie Connors in the slot, and Connors tucked it inside the right post to give Princeton a 2-1 lead with 16-plus minutes left in the middle frame.

Princeton made it 3-1 just past the midway point of the second period when Kate Monihan sent a pass forward for Connors, who found Carly Bullock charging toward goal for her team-best seventh of the season.

Bullock had her second goal of the night and eighth on the season when Sarah Fillier won the puck near the Tigers' blue line and had a two-on-one with Bullock despite the Dutchwomen being on the power play. Fillier had her initial shot stopped, but Bullock was there to pounce on the rebound for the shorthanded goal.

The Tigers weren't done scoring, with Neunzert sending the team's seventh goal in after Frankel wrapped around the net and found Neunzert in the middle of a crowd in front of the crease with less than two minutes to play.
