The gray sky was all gloom and doom in Storrs, Connecticut on Sunday. The UConn field hockey team (19-4) prepared their garb accordingly, but the weather would ultimately be a bad omen for their NCAA tournament quarterfinal between No. 2 overall seed UConn and the visiting Princeton Tigers.
Aiming to continue riding a five-game winning streak into the Final Four, UConn was instead stunned 2-0 by the visitors on Sunday afternoon, concluding another strong season for the program, but one that came to an earlier end than they would have liked.
Even the uninformed field hockey fan could tell the first period was in favor of the Huskies.
