Friday night’s game could have derailed Penn State’s entire season, and while it still could have major consequences, it got back on track on Saturday.
The Nittany Lions earned a series split at Wisconsin with a 3-2 win on Saturday.
Penn State relied on its defense to get the job done, limiting the Badgers to only 29 shots on the night.
Better at the drop
Friday night’s start was less than ideal for the Nittany Lions, as they gave up three goals in the opening frame.
While the Badgers had another decent start, it was Penn State who found the back of the net first.
