TEMPE, Ariz. -- Tyler Busch couldn't hide his emotions. The Sun Devils men's hockey team was in Columbus, Ohio one week after Busch's landmark 21st birthday to take on the No. 10 Buckeyes in back-to-back games on Jan. 13-14.

While playing his first year of junior hockey for the Spruce Grove Saints of the Alberta Junior Hockey League, Busch had committed to attend Ohio State, only to back out, re-open his recruiting, and eventually land at Arizona State.

This was a big moment.

"It was something I was looking forward to since the start of the year when I saw the schedule," Busch said.
