With holiday festivities now in the rearview mirror, No. 5 Penn State is set to get back to business with a pair of contests against No. 20 RIT.
The Nittany Lions will return to action for the first time since Dec. 10 when they travel to Rochester, New York, on Dec. 30, before hosting the Tigers back home at Pegula Ice Arena the following day.
While Penn State hasn’t suited up recently, they have a slight leg up on their latest opponent, as RIT hasn’t competed since Dec. 3, a game where they decimated Canisius 10-4.
Performances like that exemplify why the blue and white’s latest opponent has earned its spot in the coaches poll.
