Princeton now holds an incredible 40-1 edge over Harvard with the lone defeat coming in 2004.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey do a very good job of funneling shots into [Johnson] and dictating where the shots going to come\u2014if we can break that chain we have a chance to score,\u201d Minnis said about a Princeton defense surrendering a paltry 4.5 goals a game.<\/p>\n<p>To qualify for the 2017 NCAA Women\u2019s Water Polo Tournament both teams will need to leapfrog<strong> Collegiate Water Polo Association<\/strong> (CWPA) foes Indiana and Michigan by capturing the CWPA&#8217;s automatic berth.<\/p>\n<p>The men\u2019s and women\u2019s coach at Harvard since 2010, Minnis understands that its the Wolverines and Tigers who are most deserving of the East&#8217;s top billing.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Princeton and Michigan are getting the most publicity,&#8221; he said. &#8220;The Tigers have the best goalie in the world and Michigan\u2019s coming off of a big Final Four run last year.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Harvard (4-2) is flying under the radar for now\u2014which suits the Crimson coach just fine.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNCAAs is not the ultimate goal for us,\u201d Minnis said. \u201cAs much as it was to make the Final Four [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.totalwaterpolo.com\/2016\/12\/03\/joy-berkeley-harvard-water-polo-fans-crimson-face-usc-final-four\/\" target=\"_blank\">last year <\/a>with the Harvard men\u2019s team]\u2014and that&#8217;s what you talk about\u2014the most important goal for us is to win a conference championship.
