Wunder Scores as No. 14 Tigers Fall to No. 8 Northeastern in Smashville Opener

Box Score

Rookie Issy Wunder had the goal as the No. 14-ranked Princeton women's hockey team battled but fell 4-1 to No. 8 Northeastern in its first of two games at the Smashville Showcase at the Ford Ice Center Bellevue, the training home of the NHL's Nashville Predators.

Wunder's goal came on a centering pass from junior Sarah Fillier, who had her 121st career point with the assist. The goal cut Princeton's deficit to 2-1 less than four minutes into the third period, but less than five minutes later, Northeastern's Peyton Anderson restored the Huskies' two-goal lead before teammate Maureen Murphy completed her hat trick with less than four minutes to go in the game. After the teams had a scoreless first period, Murphy scored twice in the second period to give the Huskies a 2-0 lead.
