M. Lax falls to Princeton, 12-8

"Bailer played great," sophomore midfielder Dana Sprong said. "He's scored about half of his career goals in the past few games so he's been coming on strong for [Princeton]."

Harvard also didn't receive any help from the officials suffering an eight-to-one penalty deficit. Princeton converted on half of its man-up situations.

Meanwhile, junior midfielder Geoffrey Watson netted the only extra man goal for Harvard way back at 3:31 of the second quarter tying the score then at two.

"We felt we had a number of bad calls in the game," Sprong said.

By 11:17, Princeton freshman attacker B.J. Prager completed his hat trick and tallied the final power play goal of the game.

At 11-4, the game was basically out of reach.

This didn't stop Harvard from trying. Sophomore midfielder Roger Buttles made the game 11-5 with 2:14 left in the third quarter.

The Crimson started to maintain possession of the ball and dictate the play to the Tigers. Harvard began working the ball down low.
