Less than 24 hours after one of the team’s most sluggish performances of the season, No. 15 Arizona State (14-7-1) returned to the ice on Saturday in the Desert Hockey Classic against No. 3 Minnesota State (14-5-1), and the Devils bounced back in a big way.
ASU recorded a 2-2 tie against a high-caliber Minnesota State team after 65 minutes of action. The game went to a shootout and ASU won, but due to NCAA rules, the game goes down as a tie in the record books.
Nonetheless, the performance and the highly-contested battle against a formidable top-five opponent proved what the Sun Devils are capable of when they play to their full capacity.
