Box Score NEW HAVEN, Conn. –  The win streak has come to an end at six games in a tightly contested 2-1 game against a nationally ranked team. The Yale Women's Hockey Team got 26 saves from junior Gianna Meloni and a goal from sophomore Emma Seitz but could not close the gap on the deficit against No. 6 Princeton at Ingalls Rink in ECAC play.
 
The Bulldogs (13-9, 9-5), winners of six of the last seven outings, trailed 2-0 until Seitz followed up a third-period shot by Grace Lee to cut the margin to one with more than half a period to play. That titled the ice for the home team looking for a school-record seventh straight win, but the Elis took a five-minute major penalty and lost much of the momentum.
 
Meloni, who blanked Princeton on all four advantages, kicked aside a few shots and the special teams killed off the major, while the Elis still had a few minutes to try and even things. They pulled Meloni for an extra skater but could not get sustained pressure in the offensive zone.
 
The Elis look to rebound Saturday at 3 p.m. when Quinnipiac comes to the Whale for the White Out Game.  
 
WHITE OUT SATURDAY
The annual Whiteout for Mandi Schwartz is Saturday at 3 p.m. This event celebrates the life and legacy of Mandi Schwartz, a Yale player who lost her battle to Leukemia on April 3, 2011. The game raises awareness for bone marrow donations through Be the Match and also supports the Mandi Schwartz Foundation. Mandi's brother, Jaden, and the St. Louis Blues, along with other NHL teams, have contributed to the Whiteout. The Blues even skated at the Whale a few years ago to help promote the event. The day includes a Be The Match table, special t-shirts and hats and an auction and raffle with classic memorabilia. Please join us as we celebrate Mandi. Those unable to attend can make a donation online at http://www.mandi17.org/?page_id=145.
