As the overall #2 seed in the country Minnesota hosted Princeton for the 2019 NCAA Quarterfinals Saturday afternoon at Ridder Arena. As expected the Gophers went hard from the moment the puck dropped and forced the Tigers into their own zone for the majority of the first several minutes. Emily Oden’s slot shot during a flurry hit pipe instead of the back of the net. Princeton’s first shot on goal didn’t come until a minute later, but it was a big one as Sarah Fillier’s shot from the left circle slipped past Sydney Scobee at 5:26. This put a bit of bounce in the Tigers’ strides, but Minnesota didn’t wait long to get them back.
