W. Hockey Faces Yale, Princeton

To put Yale's scoring woes in perspective, the second worst offensive team in the conference, Boston College, has 18 goals this season. At the Bulldogs' current pace, they will be lucky to score 18 goals all season.

If the Yale offense has any hope of burying the puck in the Crimson net, the Bulldogs will need a big game from junior forward Lisa Meyers.

With three goals and an assist for four points in nine games, Meyers is responsible for half of her team's scoring this season.

Along with sophomore forward Sara Wood--who is second on the team in scoring with a pair of goals--Meyers is the heart of the Bulldog attack.

Despite relying on just two players for the bulk of its offense production, neither Meyers nor Wood has cracked the top 75 in ECAC scoring.

Without much of a scoring threat up front and the second most goals allowed in the conference, most of Saturday's game will likely be played in the Yale zone and the Crimson should have an opportunity to run up the score.

After the Bulldogs, however, the Crimson should have a tougher fight on its hands Sunday against Princeton.
