Up and down the right side of the field, Noah Rhynhart was able to find a little bit more space than usual. Accustomed to playing forward, the senior was forced out on the wing for Syracuse by an injury to Korab Syla.
“Noah’s been kind of struggling a little bit with illness, but I thought when he came on up front first half, he was very good,” SU head coach Ian McIntyre said. “So we wanted to try and keep him on the field.”
Rhynhart, Andreas Jenssen and Jonathan Hagman all played increased minutes because of injuries to Syla and Juuso Pasanen.
