Lions Come Back Strong, Beat Gophers

By Maria Canales, GoPSUsports.com Student Staff WriterMINNEAPOLIS, MN. -- For the first time in program history, the No. 16 Penn State men's hockey team (17-8-3, 7-5-0-0 Big Ten) beat Minnesota (14-13-0, 9-3-0-0 Big Ten) in Mariucci Arena by tallying a 5-3 victory on Saturday night. Despite a 4-1 loss on Friday night, the Nittany Lions bounced back and fought through every minute of Saturday's game to come out on top. "It means a lot, I thought it was great, the guys just had a heck of a game and our trainer had a heck of a game," said head coach Guy Gadowsky.
