TEMPE – The Sun Devils continued to battle puck luck despite scoring three goals from three different skaters against the Tigers on Saturday night. The Arizona State ice hockey team (11-16-0) massively outshot No. 20 RIT (17-6-1) but could not evade the series sweep and 5-3 loss on Saturday night.

The game seemed ready for the Sun Devils' taking as goals from Ryan Alexander, Matthew Kopperud, and Chris Grando put ASU up 3-2 by the beginning of the third period. RIT went on to score three unanswered goals, flipping the switch and securing the 5-3 win.
