After Friday’s 8-0 thrashing at the hands of the Boston University Terriers (13-11-2), it was clear that ASU head coach Greg Powers and the Arizona State Sun Devils (7-16-5) needed to respond. . . in a big way.
A game full of penalties, the opener on Friday got out of hand early for the Sun Devils and they were simply never able to respond. On Saturday, however, although it contained more penalties, the Devils never gave up, keeping themselves in a close game right to the end.
“That’s a great hockey team and we battled toe-to-toe,” coach Powers said of his team’s performance.
