For the Crimson to clinch a spot in the NCAA tournament, Princeton will have to lose at least one of its last two games, and the Brown juggernaut (11-2, 5-0 Ivy) needs to lose all three of its remaining match-ups, against Cornell, Fairfield and Harvard.
Besides help from the other teams, the Crimson needs to win all three of its remaining games to stay alive in the league race. After Providence today, they will play Dartmouth and Brown.
If they had won on Saturday, the Crimson would have moved into sole possession of second place. The Harvard-Brown matchup on the last weekend of the season would probably have decided the title.
But the team isn't comfortable with such "should've, would've, could've" speculation.
"We still have games to play and games to win and we need to finish up the season strong," Cowan said.
So now it is a matter of remaining focused and taking it one game at a time, according to Nagle.
"I think that we still feel that we have a lot to prove and that we can be a great team," she said.
