Penn State downed RIT in the AHA Semifinals in back-to-back victories on Friday and Saturday to claim its third consecutive trip to the AHA Championship.
As the conference’s No. 1 seed, the Nittany Lions will host No. 2 Mercyhurst at Pegula Ice Arena on Saturday. The Lakers took their semifinal series over Syracuse in the final game with their 5-2 win on Sunday afternoon.
Staying in Control
It took Tessa Janecke just 16 seconds into the opening period of the 2025 playoff campaign to score the first goal.
Building on Penn State/s early command, roughly three minutes later, Janecke scored again to give the Nittany Lions a quick 2-0 lead.
