The Princeton MEN’S SWIMMING AND DIVING season was suspended Dec. 15 following the discovery of “vulgar and offensive” materials that included messages on a University-sponsored team listserv. The material was “misogynistic and racist in nature,” according to a University release.
“The behavior that we have learned about is simply unacceptable,” Athletic Director Mollie Marcoux Samaan ’91 said in the release. “It is antithetical to the values of our athletic program and of the University.” On Dec. 22, the University announced that it had canceled the remainder of the season, which included two dual meets and the Ivy League Championships.
Cara Mattaliano ’17 won her second straight Ivy League Player of the Year award in WOMEN’S VOLLEYBALL after leading the league with 3.8 kills per set. The Tigers, playing in their first NCAA Tournament game since 2007, lost 3–0 at No. 13-seed Brigham Young Dec. 2.
FIELD HOCKEY standout Cat Caro ’17, the Ivy League Offensive Player of the Year, scored her 18th goal of the season against Delaware in the NCAA semifinals Nov. 18, tying the game at 2–2 in the second half. Less than two minutes later, the Blue Hens scored to regain the lead, 3–2, and held on to advance to the championship game.
