Football: Strong Yale team with championship aspirations to host football team in 132nd edition of storied rivalry

For the Yale football team, Princeton is an orange-and-black nuisance standing between the Bulldogs and a potential share of the Ivy League crown. For Princeton, Yale is one of two remaining opportunities to avoid a winless league record — an unprecedented fate.

Men's Hockey: Upstate New York foes await Princeton

Going in to this weekend, the men’s hockey team is looking to maintain and redeem — their game record, that is. In its second weekend of league play, Princeton will travel to upstate New York this weekend to face Cornell (1-3 overall, 1-1 ECAC Hockey) and Colgate (2-3-1, 0-1-1). Coming off their first win of the season against Brown last Saturday, the Tigers are looking for a positive weekend while relying particularly on work ethic.

Women's Ice Hockey: Romanchuk, DiCesare to lead squad against league’s best

After a rough opening stretch to its season, the women’s hockey team (3-4 overall, 3-2 ECAC Hockey) returned from its weekend on the road with two wins. Without much time to prepare, the Tigers jumped right into game play three weeks ago. In its opening exhibition game versus McGill, Princeton had a slow start that caused it to fall behind early and never score for the equalizer, ending the game with a 4-3 loss. The next day, Princeton hosted Yale and Brown for an Ivy League preseason round robin in which the Tigers beat the Bulldogs 4-2 but fell to the Bears 3-0.

Men's Basketball: Johnson '97 keeps legacy alive

Jadwin Gymnasium, home to Princeton basketball for 41 years, is a puzzling sort of place. A mess of orange and black and Astroturf green, it sits tucked away in a far-flung corner of campus, hidden from the sight of all but the most dedicated of travelers. Its buttressed ceilings and dreary, gray walls, only rarely filled by the thousands it was designed to hold, suggest something of an industrial bent — a silent acknowledgement of a time when efficiency was king and aesthetics the court jester.

Men's Hockey: Tigers hope for return to better form

The Class of 2010 gave Princeton nine men’s hockey players who would collectively become the winningest class in the program’s history. They had more than 20 wins their sophomore and junior seasons and qualified for bids in the NCAA tournament those years. With that class gone, this year’s team aims to return to winning form following a disappointing injury-ridden season last year.
