Princeton (0-2-0) returns to the road on Sunday, visiting Colgate (0-4-0) for a match with the Raiders at Beyer-Small '76 Field.

The two teams are meeting for the just the fifth time, each side holding two wins over the other. The last meeting between the two teams came in 2017, a 1-0 win for Colgate on home turf in Hamilton. Princeton's last win over Colgate came on November 2, 2010 -- a 3-1 victory on the road.

Princeton is looking to end a two-game skid to start the season, and the Tigers are 0-3-2 in their last five matches dating back to the end of the 2019 season. The winless start to 2021 comes despite the Tigers outshooting their opponents, 33-19, and holding a 13-7 edge in shots on goal. Of the three goals conceded by Princeton, one was an own goal deflected in by a sliding defender in a 1-0 loss to Rutgers and another came via a penalty kick late in a 2-0 loss at Vermont on Tuesday.

Ryan Clare (7), Kevin O'Toole (5), Daniel Diaz Bonilla (4) and James Wangsness (4) have taken the most shots for the Tigers and are likely candidates to break through for the team.
