This weekend, Princeton women’s hockey will open its season at home against Syracuse (0–7) in a two-game series on Friday evening and Saturday afternoon. The Tigers will be looking to get off to a great start this season before they have to play their first conference game on Oct. 29 against Quinnipiac at home. Expectations are high for Princeton this season, as it is currently ranked No. 6 in the USCHO.com rankings behind ECAC rivals No. 4 Clarkson and No. 5 Cornell and was picked to finish second in the ECAC preseason poll behind Clarkson and tied with Cornell. Notably, the Tigers received more first-place votes (five) than the Golden Knights (three) and the Big Red (four). Princeton will face Cornell in Ithaca on Nov. 2 at 3 p.m.
Editor’s Note: In honor of the 150th season of Princeton Football, The Daily Princetonian will be re-publishing football articles from our archives.

When I called Ginny Beams ’90 for our first interview, I thanked her for taking the time to talk.
Princeton football’s last two wins have been characterized not by flashy offensive numbers, but by stifling defensive play. Two weeks ago, against Columbia, Princeton held the Lions to 206 yards of total offense and 10 points, and last week against Lafayette, the Tigers allowed 162 yards of offense and three points. As the Tigers (4–0, 1–0 Ivy) begin a stretch of six consecutive Ivy League games at Brown (1–3, 0–1) this Saturday, they’ll need to continue that trend.
Men’s soccer (7–3–1 overall, 0–1–1 Ivy League) returned home on Tuesday with a 3–0 win against the Lehigh Mountain Hawks (8–4–1). Goals from junior midfielder Frankie DeRosa in the 17th minute, senior forward/midfielder Danny Hampton in the 41st minute, and first-year forward Daniel Diaz Bonilla in the 83rd minute were a welcome success after a difficult game against Brown. The win also increased Princeton’s overall record against Lehigh to 32–8–1.

The Tigers conceded a 13th-minute goal to the lower-ranked Bears, earned four yellow cards in the span of 18 minutes, lost two starters — one to a red card, the other to injury — and suffered through an excruciating double overtime. Even senior forward Danny Hampton’s 87th-minute goal was not enough to energize the Tigers: the game ended in a 1–1 draw.
No. 8 field hockey (8–4 overall, 3–0 Ivy) put together a dominating performance to defeat Columbia (5–6, 1–2) by a score of 8–1 on Saturday afternoon at Bedford Field. The seven-goal win is the Tigers’ largest margin of victory since they defeated Brown last year 8–0.
