Williamstown -- Today the fourth-ranked Princeton Tigers traveled to Williams College to take on the Ephs. Princeton came in strong, pushing the Ephs to their limits.
Knowing the matches were going to be very challenging, the women focused on staying on court as long as possible. The women were instructed to treat the matches as an ultimate training session. With this mindset, the Ephs fought hard, holding their ground. Sophomore, Laura Henry, had an especially outstanding performance against Princeton senior, Jackie Moss. Captain Kavitha Mannava stated, "Today's match against Princeton was a good challenge for us to figure out how to compete against some of the best players in the country. With that said, we were outplayed throughout our entire lineup, and despite some really great efforts, were not able to match the skill and experience of the Princeton team."
Although the women fell 9-0 to Princeton, it was a great experience and gave the women something more to strive for. They look forward to when the Tigers return in two years to the Purple Valley.
