It’s won-or-done time for the Penn State men’s hockey team.

A matchup against Ohio State in a Big Ten tournament semifinal Sunday afternoon either extends the season another game or sends the Nittany Lions home from Columbus, Ohio, with an arguably successful campaign short of the goal of a spot in the NCAA tournament.

Penn State has been in this must-win situation before and responded well.
