Tigers Snap Elis’ Winning Streak at Home

Lucy Liu


Falling to both No. 5 Princeton and Davidson this weekend on Johnson Field, the Yale field hockey team struggled to make comebacks after giving up early goals.

The Bulldogs (4–5, 0–2 Ivy League) lost their second conference game this season on Friday night by a lopsided score of 0–5 against powerhouse No. 5 Princeton (8–3, 2–0 Ivy League). The Tigers gave the Elis no chance to go on the offensive and found the back of the net before the seven-minute mark while continuing to deliver aggressive shots on goal throughout the rest of the game. On Sunday, the Bulldogs once again gave up an early advantage to Davidson (4–6, 1–1 A-10), ultimately losing 1–2.
