Michigan hockey holds off Penn State, wins season-long 4th straight

ANN ARBOR - Michigan extended its season-long win streak to four games on Saturday, defeating Penn State 3-2 at Yost Ice Arena.

The Nittany Lions scored two goals in a 63-second span to cut the deficit to 3-2 with 53 seconds remaining, but couldn't get the equalizer with the goalie pulled.

Wolverines sophomore Hayden Lavigne made 43 saves, but had his shutout streak snapped at 141 minutes, 37 seconds.

No. 20 Michigan (12-10-2, 7-7-2-1), which was sixth in the Big Ten before last weekend's series at Minnesota, moves past No. 12 Penn State (13-10-3, 6-8-3-2) for third in the conference.
