After cracking the top 25 for the first time since 2004, the Wildcats’ first game with that distinction came against a familiar foe.
Adding the little number next to “Villanova” widened the target on the Wildcats’ backs, but for Princeton—it was a little more personal.
Villanova ended the Tigers’ season last year, after knocking them out in the opening round of the WNIT.
Since then, Princeton has grown a lot and its star forward, sophomore Bella Alarie, had shown tremendous strides in developing her game. However, on Wednesday night at Jadwin Gymnasium, Villanova proved it was still better.
