The Tigers started with a 2-1 lead with goals from Amy Castellano and Nicole Kresich before the host squad countered with three straight tallies, taking a 4-2 advantage with 5:53 left in the first half. Larkin broke up the Sun Devils' run before two more goals from the home unit set the halftime score at 6-3.
Princeton and Arizona State each added two goals in the third frame with the Sun Devils taking an 8-5 advantage into the final quarter. The Tigers were held scoreless over the final eight minutes as Arizona State took the meeting, 9-5.
The Tigers will now take a week off before hosting the Princeton Invitational Feb.15-16.
