As the Penn State players and coaches lined up to honor their own, the team morphed from a competitive bunch to a loving family.
After the Nittany Lions played in a hard-fought 1-0 defeat to Lindenwood Saturday afternoon, many of the attendees at Pegula Ice Arena stayed in their seats, sticking around to view a team ceremony honoring six of the Nittany Lions' 12 seniors. Throughout each loving embrace, the senior class had a chance to say goodbye to the program that has housed them for the past four seasons.
The ceremony was emotional and heartfelt, as was honoring the other six seniors after Friday night's contest.
