Prior to last night’s match in Happy Valley, the last time the Scarlet Knights dropped a regular season match was September 12th, 2021 versus Georgetown. On a cold, rainy, blustery night at Jeffrey Field, the Knights could not find the back of the net.
The Nittany Lions struck early in the 9th minute on a goal by Ally Schlegel, off the rebound on a save by Knights keeper Megan McClelland. Shortly after, the Knights’s offense picked up the pace as the skies opened up, outshooting Penn State 10-5, and getting three shots on goal from Sara Brocious, Riley Tiernan, and Kylie Daigle, but couldn’t sneak one past Nittany Lions keeper Katherine Asman, who made five saves in the opening half.
