Penn State women's hockey fights Mercyhurst to record-tying stalemate

The Nittany Lions ended their second game of the weekend against Mercyhurst with a last minute tie

Overtime has been common for Penn State this season. Achieving it in dramatic fashion has not.

The Nittany Lions came back from a two goal deficit and sent their finale with Mercyhurst into overtime, where it ended knotted at 3.

The tying goal for Penn State came in the last 16 seconds of the third period while the team was on the power play. Though the Lakers only had one player in the penalty box, the Nittany Lions had a two skater advantage because they pulled their goalie.
