Women’s lightweights hope to avenge Crimson loss at Sprints
The men's volleyball team concluded its season on a strong note, but fell just shy of a bid for the NCAA Tournament. The Tigers (16-10 overall, 10-4 Eastern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association) traveled to State College, Pa. over the weekend to try and win the EIVA playoffs in a four-team tournament that included Penn State, Harvard and George Mason.
One week of regular-season play remains, and it remains to be seen who will take the North Division title. Northerners Harvard and Dartmouth have particularly strong sides this year. Their upcoming series will likely determine who will get home-field advantage in the postseason, and who will be left out of the championship series. With that in mind, let's take a look at how the Ancient Eight stack up.

After falling to George Mason (14-13 overall, 8-6 EIVA) on the road the previous week, the men's volleyball team (15-9, 10-4) avenged its loss to the Patriots with a home winon Fridaynight in front of a packed Dillon Gymnasium. Not only did the win end the Tigers' regular season on a high note, but it also gave them the third seed for the EIVA playoffs. Gaining the third seed is crucial because it puts Princeton on the opposite side of the EIVA bracket from 15-time reigning champion Penn State, which sits atop the conference rankings.

While the cold weather is just starting to evaporate with the approaching spring, the heat in the gym has been high for men’s volleyball across the Eastern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association over the last several weeks. Let’s take a look at the EIVA standings.
A weekend of high hopes for the wrestling team came up short of overall expectations this weekend at the Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association Championships in Philadelphia. While five of the Tigers’ 10 representatives found their way to the podium, unfortunate breaks and circumstantial matchups gave Princeton only one automatic NCAA qualifier.
Two weeks ago saw the conclusion of one of the best regular seasons in the history of Princeton wrestling. Head coach Chris Ayres’ grapplers not only went 11-4 in their dual schedule, but also beat Binghamton for the first time in program history, and defeated Hofstra for the first time in 25 years. With double-digit wins and less than five losses on their record, the Tigers accomplished a feat that the school’s wrestling team had not seen since the 1980-81 season.

With the chance to cap off a complete turnaround from last season’s two-win performance to a two-loss season this year, the wrestling team came up short by falling in its final two matches of the regular season. The Tigers (11-4 overall, 3-2 Ivy League) fell to Rider(14-8) 21-15 on Fridaynight in Dillon Gymnasium. Princeton then fell to Ivy rival Penn (8-6, 3-2 Ivy) 22-9 on Saturday afternoon at home.
At this point, it is safe to say that no wrestling squad in the Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association has had as large of a turnaround this season as Princeton. The Tigers (13-2, 3-1 Ivy) will look to complete an incredible rebound to this season when they take on Rider and Penn at home this weekend for their final regular season matches. Wins in both matches would mark an inverse performance for head coach Chris Ayres’ squad, as the team would go from a two-win team during the 2012-13 season to a two-loss record this season.
