Regional victories are reason to celebrate for Princeton soccer coach David Gray and senior keeper Landon Davis.
The Tigers had a regional drought of four years before breaking through last year. On Saturday, the Tigers added another win in regional play with a 6-2 victory over Stanford Olympia in a quarterfinal match at Bryant Field.
“All four years we’ve only won a regional game twice. That’s very exciting for us,” Davis said. “For us, the challenge was to stay in it and keep our heads in it.”
“When the finality of it is in front of it, playoff wins always mean more. Doesn’t matter what round it is,” Gray said. “You cherish them because we’ve had some down years as a program. Early when I was coaching, we had some solid teams and I think you start to take certain things for granted
