No. 6 Women's Water Polo Collects CWPA Split
April 15, 2023 | Women's Water Polo
ANN ARBOR – The No. 6 Princeton Women's Water Polo team picked up a split in Collegiate Water Polo Association action.
No. 12 Michigan 7, No. 6 Princeton 6
The first quarter was played at feverish pace with six goals combined. Neither team led by more than a goal as a tally from Michigan's Kata Utassy set the contest at 3-all. The two teams added goals in the second quarter making it 4-4 at the break.
Michigan began the second half with three straight goals before two consecutive tallies from Kayla Yelensky got Princeton back within one, 7-6, with 2:01 left. The Tigers had several possessions but couldn't find the equalizer to fall to the Wolverines.
Goals: Yelensky 3, Sekulic, Carroll, Robinson
Saves: Lucas
No. 6 Princeton 17, Bucknell 6
After the Bison scored the first goal of the game, the Tigers rolled out with seven straight goals. Princeton's offense hardly let up, taking a 9-2 lead into halftime.
Head coach Derek Ellingson's group scored just twice in the third frame but solidified an impressive victory with a six-goal fourth quarter.
Princeton had nine different goal scorers with Shanna Davidson's hat trick. The Tigers can clinch the No. 1 seed in the CWPA Tournament with a win over Saint Francis Sunday (10:30 a.m.).
goals: Davidson 3, Carver 2, Stewart 2, Sekulic 2, Robinson 2, Burghardt 2, Carroll 2, A. Houlahan, Mallery
