The Red field hockey team faced off against a strong Princeton squad this Saturday on Marsha Dodson Field. The Red was able to score two, one in its strong opening minutes and one in the later minutes of the second half; however, the Tigers scored three in between to hold off the Red, 3-2, and take the lead in the Ivy League race.
