Princeton 27, Columbia 24 OT
Princeton got its first win of the season in dramatic overtime fashion with a win over the Lions of Columbia (1-2, 0-1).
The Tigers (1-2, 1-0) were able to celebrate thanks to the late game heroics of Taylor Northrop, who kicked a 24-yard field goal in the first overtime.
Northrop's field goal put the finishing touches on a strong fourth quarter comeback by the Tigers. Northrop kicked a 37-yard field goal with 2:25 left to play to pull the Tigers within 7.
With so little time left, the Tigers couldn't let the Lions have the ball back. Northrop executed a picture perfect onside kick, which was recovered by Princeton's Taylor Smith.
