CHRIS SAILER, head coach of women’s lacrosse, won her 400th game in Princeton’s season opener against Temple Feb. 16. Sailer, now in her 33rd season with the Tigers, is the second Division I women’s coach to win 400 and the first who has won all 400 at the same school. After the game, players and alumnae wore commemorative T-shirts as they congratulated Sailer on the field. “It was amazing,” she told The Trentonian, “and I feel a lot of love right now.”
