After spending the 2021 season and the opening weeks of 2022 playing home matches at Sherrerd Field while construction of the new Myslik field at Roberts Stadium was completed, Princeton will take its first competitive steps on its new home turf this Saturday against Yale in the home Ivy opener.

Tuesday's scheduled match with Monmouth at Roberts Stadium has been postponed due to rain. No makeup date has been announced as of this time.

Notes To Know

Over the weekend, Princeton picked up three points to start the Ivy League portion of the season with a 1-0 win at Dartmouth. The Tigers took advantage of an early red card issued to Dartmouth's starting goalkeeper and dominated the pace of play rhe rest of the way. Princeton had a 14-1 edge in shots, and 8-0 advantage in shots on goal, and a 14-5 edge in corner kicks. The game's lone goal was a header from Walker Gillespie in the 56th minute off a corner.
With the win, Princeton has won its last eight Ivy League matches dating back to the start of the 2021 Ancient Eight season. The Tigers are outscoring ivy opponents, 17-5 over their last eight ivy games with four shutouts. Princeton's defense has been stifling of late in Ivy play, entering the Yale match with a run of 275:24 of game play without conceding a goal dating back to the end of the Cornell match last October.
Last year against Yale, Mateo Godoy struck in the 94th minute to secure a 1-0 win for the Tigers in overtime -- a victory which was not only the 200th win of Jim Barlow's career, it finished off a 7-0-0 Ivy season for the program and an outright Ivy League championship.
