In its season-opening series, Arizona State hockey played two very similar games against Penn State on Friday and Saturday nights. On Friday night, hockey was up to begin the third period and let in four goals, losing the game. It was a similar story on Saturday.
No. 14 Arizona State hockey (0-2) lost to No. 5 Penn State (2-0) in a third-period meltdown that saw the Nittany Lions score their only four goals in the game. The collapse ended in a 4-2 loss.
“I probably should have put the second unit out, but I believe in our guys and I thought that they could go out there and win us a game,” head coach Greg Powers said.
