Nobody quite saw it coming. Following a shaky start to the season, the stage was set for the Tigers (2-4 overall, 0-1 Ivy League) to claw their way back into contention with an early conference win on their home field. That script would not play out. On the opening day of Ivy League play, the Penn Quakers (4-2, 1-0) routed men’s lacrosse by a score of 20-10. Saturday’s contest saw eight members of the visiting team score, four of whom tallied hat tricks.

Under warm skies this past Saturday, Princeton men’s lacrosse emerged from their first game with a convincing 21-4 victory. NJIT, a new set of faces for the crowd at Class of 1952 Stadium, held 1-1 share of the lead for just under one minute. The next 12 goals would be scored by individuals wearing the Tigers’ home white uniforms. Anything is possible, but it’s not likely that Princeton will manage a 12-goal streak against their upcoming slate of opponents: Hofstra, No. 6 Johns Hopkins and No. 4 Maryland.

For the second consecutive year, Princeton football was outmatched by longtime rival Harvard. Competing on Boston’s Soldiers Field, the No. 15 Crimson (6-0 overall, 3-0 Ivy League) managed 42 points, including three unanswered third-quarter touchdowns, against the Tigers (4-2, 1-2), whose lone score came on a pass from sophomore quarterback John Lovett to fellow sophomore signal caller Nick Peabody.

Before 60 seconds had ticked off the clock, the Tigers faced a 7-0 deficit — Brown’s Alex Jette had returned the opening kickoff 99 yards to score — and had turned the ball over on their first possession, as senior quarterback Kedric Bostic fumbled on the game’s second offensive play. However, it would turn out that the game’s final minute, rather than the first, would prove decisive, as Brown running back Johnny Pena scored the game-winning touchdown with 57 seconds left to play.

As May’s superlative weather heralds, it is NCAA tournament time for successful spring teams. Well-acquainted with success of late, No. 11/12 women’s lacrosse (14-3 overall, 7-0 Ivy League) has plenty cause for confidence heading into its NCAA tournament first-round matchup with Fairfield University (14-4, 7-1 Mid-Atlantic Athletic Conference). Princeton carries a six-game win streak into the first-round matchup. What’s more, the Orange and Black has secured the program’s first perfect conference record since 2004 — that year, the Tigers fell to Virginia in the tournament semifinals — and its second-ever Ivy League tournament win.

Men’s and women’s lacrosse sit atop their respective conference standings with one week remaining in the regular season. The men travel to Ithaca, N.Y., for their finale and will face Cornell for the right to host the Ivy League tournament. Postseason home field advantage already belongs to the lady Tigers. A home win over Brown would give the women their first perfect conference record since 2004, in which year they fell to Virginia 10-4 in the NCAA tournament final.

Orange and Black fans at the Class of 1952 Stadium had plenty to smile about Friday night, as No. 19/20 men’s lacrosse (8-4 overall, 4-1 Ivy League) downed conference rival Harvard (6-7, 1-4) by a score of 12-11. Princeton amassed a 12-7 advantage through three periods that even Harvard’s 4-0 final quarter run could not assail. After the win, the Tigers stand alone at the top of the Ivy League table with only an away tilt against Cornell remaining on the schedule.

Unlucky No. 13 men’s lacrosse (6-3 overall, 2-1 Ivy League) suffered its third loss of the season this past Saturday at No. 20 Stony Brook (9-2, 2-1 America East). A 4-1 first quarter Princeton advantage quickly evaporated as the Seawolves stormed back with a 6-2 second-period run, establishing a lead they would not relinquish despite the Tigers’ late efforts.

Following a 10-8 loss to Brown, one of Princeton’s most familiar rivals, men’s lacrosse (6-2 overall, 2-1 Ivy League) will renew a fixture contested only twice in program history. The Stony Brook University Seawolves (8-2, 2-1 America East) play host to the Tigers this Saturday in non-conference play.

In the 2012 Ivy League finals, Princeton women’s swimming team fell to Harvard. The following year, it topped a competitive 2013 championship field to take a come-from-behind victory in front of a home crowd. Last season, in spite of a meet-high 92 points from Princeton’s Lisa Boyce ’14, the Crimson retook the crown with 1409 points to the Tigers’ 1384. This year, the Princeton squad of swimmers and divers continued this back-and-forth tradition, edging out their Cambridge, Mass. rivals with a day three comeback at Harvard’s home pool.

Boasting four of the country’s top 20 teams, the Ivy League doubtlessly ranks among college lacrosse’s most challenging conferences. Following an emotional 11-10 win over Yale, men’s lacrosse (6-1 overall, 2-0 Ivy League) turns its attentions to its third Ancient Eight challenger: No. 15 Brown (7-1, 1-0). The No. 10 Tigers face an offense which trails only Lyle Thompson’s University at Albany-SUNY in goals scored per game (16.88).

Earlier this season, a home win over then-No. 13 Harvard marked just the third time in program history that the Princeton men’s volleyball team (8-7 overall, 4-1 Eastern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association) had registered two wins over ranked opponents — its first had come against Cal State Northridge. During their spring break trip to the Rust Belt, the Tigers faced a pair of ranked opponents in No. 11 Ohio State (16-6, 7-3 Midwest Intercollegiate Volleyball Association) and No. 14 Ball State (12-11, 5-6 MIVA) but failed to grab that elusive third top-15 win.

Men’s lacrosse (3-1) suffered its first loss of this young season this past weekend. The No. 10 Maryland Terps (4-1) quelled a hot No. 9 Princeton offense — the Tigers had scored at least 14 goals in all three previous games — by a score of 11-4. An 8-1 second half Maryland run highlighted the host’s victory, while a season-low mark of four goals scored, all unassisted, made Princeton’s loss particularly harsh.

No. 10 men’s lacrosse (3-0 overall) will face its third Top 20 opponent in three weeks as the Tigers travel to face No. 9 Maryland (3-1). A win would put an exclamation mark on Princeton’s pre-conference play — Ivy League rivals Penn follow the Terps on the schedule — and secure its place among the nation’s top teams.
