Princeton, 8-16-2 overall and 7-10-2 in the ECAC, tied it at 1-1 at 14:11 of the first when David Schneider tipped a Scott Prine shot from a tough angle along the boards to the right of Vermont goalie Tim Peters. The goal was Schneider’s fourth of the season.<\/p>\n
The Tigers took a 2-1 lead at 19:01 of the first on George Parros’ eighth goal of the season. David Del Monte and Neil Stevenson-Moore assisted on the goal.<\/p>\n
Princeton maintained the one-goal lead until late in the second period when Josh Roberts scored shorthanded at 17:51 to give the Tigers a 3-1 advantage. Schneider and Prime assisted on the goal, Roberts’ third of the year.<\/p>\n
Stevenson-Moore scored his sixth goal of the season at 5:56 of the third period to give Princeton a 4-1 lead. Stevenson-Moore finished off a beautiful tic-tac-toe passing play with the goal, with assists going to Parros and Del Monte.<\/p>\n
