Penn State and Syracuse are tied 1-1 after the first period. Things look pretty even between the two teams, and each has taken a penalty and killed it off. Syracuse leads the shots on goal 10-8, and Jenna Brenneman has already made a couple of huge saves for Penn State.

At the end of the second period, it remains tied 1-1 at Syracuse. Jenna Brenneman made some highlight reel saves in that period. According to Sidearmstats, Syracuse leads the shots on goal 19-15, and that doesn't look right because it means Penn State only had five shots all period - I think that's off. No penalties that period for either team. Syracuse leads 18-8 in blocked shots.

Heading to OT at Syracuse still tied 1-1. No penalties again for the third period.

Penn State and Syracuse finish in a 1-1 OT tie. Both teams only took one penalty for the whole game. Penn State looked much better today, a lot more energy, and they had one goal called off, and hit the crossbar twice. Jenna Brenneman was a stud in net, making some enormous saves to keep the game close.

Just checked in on the scores from the weekend and 0-1-1 is disappointing. Next up Princeton. But, wait Syracuse tied Princeton. Parity. Cornell just beat Colgate twice and BU beat and tied Merrimack.

Seeing a Penn State game against Syracuse head to OT gave me flashbacks of the CHA semifinal 3 OT epic from three years ago: https://www.collegehockeystats.net/1...s/wpsusyr1.m04

Yes, I do remember that game. Syracuse does seem to save their best for Penn State regardless of the year. The success of Penn State out of conference is stunning considering their equally as stunning record in conference.

That's like the story of this season, in a nutshell - great games out of conference and against ranked teams, and struggles with CHA teams. They haven't been hammered by a ranked team all year, and have beaten or tied teams that I'm sure everyone thought would handle Penn State.

I think they're very close to being a team that starts getting votes in the rankings. Not this season, but I don't think it's very far away, either. Penn State only loses three seniors this year, and they're left with a very solid core behind those three, with some good freshmen coming in next season. Kampersal said when he took over at Penn State that he wants them in the mix when the national tournament is hosted here in 2022, and he already has Penn State looking like a whole different program.

I remember Josie Bothun's name from the U18 conversation. With still another year of high school before coming to Penn State, she'll start here after Jenna Brenneman graduates, when Chantal Burke will be a senior and Cam Leonard will be a redshirt junior. I like hearing that she's being coached by Noora Raty.

Tomorrow's 6:00 game at #4 Princeton is being broadcast on ESPN+, but I don't know if you need a subscription or not. Even if you do, it's really cheap...something like $4.50 a month, for all kinds of sports.

The game streaming video link is here: http://www.espn.com/watch/_/id/5cc61...e-vs-princeton

Penn State will have had three days off and be coming off a road trip, and #4 Princeton will have had 17 days off and be at home, so it's already stacked high against Penn State. If they do beat Princeton, either Penn State is a lot better than their record says or it says a lot about what rankings mean.

It is $4.99/month and you have access to hundreds of games of all types.
