The men’s hockey team enters postseason play off a road sweep of Ohio State, and they will look to keep the momentum going against Minnesota in this weekend’s Big Ten Tournament first round. The first round series will be a best-of-3, with the winner advancing to the semifinal next weekend.
Penn State comes into the weekend ranking No. 22 in the Pairwise, meaning the team must win the conference tournament to qualify for the NCAA tournament.
Series Preview
Minnesota took three of the four regular season meetings with Penn State, including back-to-back shutouts at Mariucci last month.
