PRINCETON, N.J. – In a stunning repetition of its last record-setting win, the Princeton women's rugby team defeated West Chester, 91-0, on Saturday at Rickerson Field.
The win is Princeton's second-consecutive 91-0 win after achieving the same scoreline over LIU last weekend at home. The result matches last week's program records for both points scored and largest margin of victory.
With 15 total tries and eight conversions, the Tigers dominated. Malinka Kwemo led the offense with three tries, while a quartet of Tigers added two apiece in Myah Natorp, Annie Huettel, Maizy Miller, and Hazel Pron. Lehua Harris, Charlie Wolfe, Sara Zavieh and Ana Alfaro each added one as well.
Kwemo and Miller each had four conversions apiece, adding 16 points altogether to the Tiger tally.
With the win, undefeated Princeton improves its record to 3-0 on the season, while West Chester falls to 0-2.
How It Happened
Despite West Chester possessing early, the Tigers struck first in the fourth minute as Natorp tallied her sixth try of the season after a penalty restart. Minutes later, Miller doubled it with her first try of the season, making it 10-0 Tigers through the first 10 minutes of action.
Going back the other way, West Chester had a breakaway run towards the Tigers' zone, but Ava Gregory was there to make the tackle and keep the Golden Rams shut out.
In the 18th minute, Harris extended the Tiger lead, grinding out a try as she pushed the ball over the line. Kwemo's first conversion of the afternoon made it 17-0 Tigers. Keeping up the attack, Wolfe added another in the 26th as she picked up the ball from the ruck and ran it into the zone. Kwemo, making her second conversion as she battled the wind, made it 24-0.
The Rams responded with two good chances, possessing the ball and sending it down the right wing, but the Tigers defended and regained possession.
Before going to the break, Natorp added another, persisting through a tackle to get the ball over the line for her second of the day. With Kwemo's conversion, Princeton took the 31-0 advantage into the break.
Coming out of the half, the Tigers picked up right where they left as Kwemo tallied her first try of the day off a pass from Natorp. The pair connected again minutes later, this time sending the ball from Natorp, to Kwemo, over to Pron who made the finish for her first of the day.
The momentum going all the Tigers' way, Kwemo was next up as she made a run, finished the try and then converted her own kick to make it 52-0.
In the 60th minute, Lindsey Mulligan ran the ball in towards the zone and Miller pushed it over the line, converting as well to bring it to 59-0 Tigers.
