Penn State won the Big Ten Tournament in double overtime on a Liam Folkes breakaway goal. The Lions, playing in just their fourth full season in Division 1 hockey, have arrived atop one of the most dominant conferences in college hockey ahead of schedule. Yet it took much longer than it should have. No team has won the Big Ten conference title having to play three games in the tournament, without the advantage of a first-round bye, until now. Penn State played four extra periods of hockey along the way, winning in double-overtime two nights in a row. That is the equivalent of playing more than four games in three days.
