Preview | No. 6 Penn State men’s hockey continues homestand with LIU

After No. 6 Penn State opened its 2025-26 season with a dominant sweep over Arizona State, its first pair of games back in Hockey Valley weren’t as strong, splitting its home opening series with Clarkson.

The Nittany Lions continue their non-conference homestand this weekend, welcoming LIU to Pegula Ice Arena at 7:30 p.m. Friday and 6 p.m. Saturday.

After an upset loss last weekend and a two-place drop in the polls, the blue and white have another tough task ahead if it wants to build some early season momentum.
