TEMPE, Ariz. -- Coming off a gritty showing in game one of the weekend, the Arizona State Sun Devils (2-2-0) again gave top-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes (2-0-0) all they could muster on Saturday night.
The game was tied at 0-0 for the first 39 minutes, until Ohio State finally broke the tie on a goal caused by a broken play in front of junior net minder Joey Daccord. Despite the goal, Daccord was once again brilliant, stopping 33 of 35 shots with the second goal coming on a penalty shot.
"I'm extremely proud of our guys," said head coach Greg Powers.
