Men's Soccer: Killer instinct evident in shutout of Columbia

Click. That was the sound that the men?s soccer team made this weekend, as Princeton shut out Columbia, 2-0, to win its first Ivy League game of the season.After struggling to close out games earlier this year, the Tigers (4-8-1 overall, 1-1-1 Ivy League) were perfectly in sync on both the offensive and defensive ends against the Lions (3-8-1, 1-2-0). Unfortunately for Columbia and the rest of the Ancient Eight, Princeton is finding its A-game at the right time.?I think for a pretty long stretch, we had been playing pretty well ? keeping possession of the ball, getting good shots ? but we weren?t able to finish our opportunities,? head coach Jim Barlow ?91 said.
