SERIES INFORMATION VS. RPI
The Tigers enter the weekend with a 37-71-12 record all-time against RPI in the 120 previous meetings. Earlier this season, RPI skated out to a 4-0 lead en route to a 4-1 win in Ttoy. The Tigers have lost the last four meetings in the series after winning the three previous games.
PRINCETON JOCKEYING FOR POSITION IN ECAC
With a 6-1 win over Brown last Friday, the Tigers improved to 2-1-1 over their last four games. The seven points added have squarely kept the Tigers in the mix for home ice in the first round of the ECAC Playoffs. Entering this weekend, the Tigers are in 9th place with 14 points, just four points out of 6th place with at least two games in hand on every team above them.
TIGERS COMPLETE SEASON SWEEP OF BROWN
11 different skaters recorded at least one point as the Tigers nocked off Brown last Friday, 6-1, to secure a season sweep. Adam Robbins had two goals, while Spencer Kersten and Corey Andonovsky each had a goal and an assist. With the win, Princeton finished the season series with the Bears ahead 12-4 on goals scored.
LAST TIME OUT AT RPI
The Engineers scored the game's first four goals on their way to a 4-1 win in Troy on Dec. 4. Anthony Baxter had a goal and two assists, Ottoville Leppanen had a goal and an assist, and Ture Linden had two helpers for RPI. Mike Ufberg scored Princeton's goal.
TIGERS GO 1-0-1 ON NEW YORK TRIP
Princeton secured four points over the weekend in ECAC play, picking up a 5-4 win at No. 8 Cornell and following up with a 2-2 tie at Colgate the next night before the Raiders secured the extra point in the shootout. The win at Cornell snapped a 10-game winless streak dating back to 11/13/21.
PRINCETON KNOCKS OFF #8 CORNELL IN ITHACA
Three days after a loss at No. 1 Quinnipiac, Princeton went into Lynah and defeated No. 8 Cornell, 5-4, for Ron Fogarty's first win in Ithaca in his seventh trip. The win over the Big Red was Princeton first in Ithaca since 2013 and first over a Top-10 team since a 4-1 win over a No. 2 Cornell team in the 2018 ECAC Semifinals and the first regular-season win over a Top-10 foe since a 5-4 (OT) win over No. 4 Penn State on 1/28/17.
SPENCER ON FIRE
Spencer Kersten has tallied six points over his last six games, averaging a point-per-game with 4g, 2a dating back to 12/11 at Providence.
TIGERS BACK AT IT AFTER LAYOFF TO BEGIN 2022
Princeton had its first six games in January postponed due to COVID-19 protocols affecting both the Tigers and opponents. The postponements resulted in a 37-day layoff between games for the squad before diving right back into the first at No. 1 Quinnipiac on Jan. 18. Starting with Friday's game against RPI, Princeton plays 11 games in 23 days to close out the season.
OFFENSE FOUND?
After scoring three goals in six games between 11/27/21 and 1/18/22, the Tigers have scored 13 goals over their last four game with 2-1-1 record over that stretch. The Tigers have shown the ability to score in bunches, scoring 4+ goals in seven games this season.
SCOREY ANDONOVSKI
Senior Corey Andonovski leads the Tigers in scoring with 7g, 7a for 14 points. He has seven points (2g, 5a) over his last six games and now has four multi-point games this season. Of his seven goals, four have come on the power play. His 4 PPGs rank No. 2 in the ECAC and No. 29 in the nation.
