Princeton took the lead in the first but the Irish countered to make it 2-2 entering the third. With an early goal in the final period it looked as though the Little Tigers would take this one 3-2 but after a game tying score from Vinny Giangrasso, Ben Killian set up the golden goal with 42 seconds remaining to lead the Irish to a 4-3 victory. JSZ’s Nery Rodriguez was there for the call: Sponsor Shout Out! Thank you to Princeton Orthpaedic Associates for sponsoring both our Princeton and Notre Dame coverage!
