Princeton Blanks Waterloo in Exhibition

Princeton University is off to a good start under new head coach Ben Syer. The Tigers blanked Waterloo (Ont.) by a 6-0 count in an exhibition contest on Saturday evening at Hobey Baker Rink.

Princeton got goals from six different scorers, with three of them assisted by Jayden Sisson. Noah de la Durantaye and David Ma set up two goals apiece, while Alex Konovalov posted a goal and an assist. Princeton outshot Waterloo, 42-18, with Tiger goaltenders Ethan Pearson (seven saves) and Arthur Smith (11 saves) combining for the shutout. Dan Murphy finished with 37 stops for the visiting Warriors, who surrendered two Princeton power-play goals.

The result and individual/team statistics will not count in Princeton's official NCAA totals. The Tigers open the 2024-25 season for real at home against ECAC Hockey rival Harvard on Nov. 8 at 7 p.m.
