No. 14 Princeton Outlasts No. 9 Cornell in Shootout to Wrap Smashville Showcase
November 27, 2022 | Women's Ice Hockey
A seven-round shootout decided the No. 14-ranked Princeton women's hockey team's Smashville Showcase finale Sunday against No. 9 Cornell as Issy Wunder provided the shootout clincher in what officially counts as a 2-2 tie at the Ford Ice Center Bellevue in Nashville, Tenn.
Cornell opened the scoring with a Lily Delianedis goal with about five minutes gone in the first period before Princeton tied it with a Katherine Khramtsov goal with 7:09 left in the opening frame. On the tying goal, Annie Kuehl won the puck along the boards at center ice and sent it forward for Khramtsov, who turned around a Cornell defender at the faceoff dot to Cornell netminder Belle Mende's left and whipped home a shot in the slot.
It stayed 1-1 into the third period, when a Sarah Fillier goal with 12:22 left in regulation put Princeton in front. The go-ahead goal came in transition, with Maggie Connors sending the puck forward from deep in Princeton's defensive zone after a Taylor Hyland save. Wunder picked up the puck in the neutral zone and had a two-on-one with Fillier, dishing the puck to a charging Fillier in the slot for the finish. That lead lasted until Delianedis scored again, this time with 7:34 left in the third, to knot it up at 2-2.
It stayed there through the end of the third and a three-on-three five-minute overtime, bringing on a three-player shootout. Princeton netminder Taylor Hyland and Cornell counterpart Belle Mende were even after three shooters each with neither having allowed a goal. Cornell and Princeton then matched each other goal for goal for the next three skaters, with Solveig Neunzert, Emerson O'Leary and Catherine Kerin all scoring for Princeton before Hyland made a stop to give Wunder the chance to take the shootout, which Wunder converted.
Rookie Hyland finished with 36 saves, just five off her career high of 41 against Yale on Nov. 5. Mende made 33 saves for the Big Red.
Though Sunday's game was not part of ECAC Hockey play despite matching conference teams, Princeton will resume the 22-game ECACH schedule next weekend at Rensselaer and Union.
