NOVEMBER 8th
Drexel Splits Pair with Penn State!
Penn State wins in Philadelphia
Saturday, November 8th

Except for the score, Penn State dominated the game with most of the play in the Drexel zone.  After a scoreless first period, Armstrong with help from Lawrie gave Drexel a 1-0 lead at 5:05 in the second.  Penn State tied the game with a power play goal at the 12:07 mark.  Penn State took a brief lead at the 16:05 mark as Penn State scored a short-handed goal when Pyne took a tumble behind the net leaving Penn State with an uncontested goal.  The lead was short lived.  Zak Blazic with a feed from Armstrong tied the game 1:13 minutes later.  The number two star, PJ Armstrong, teamed up again with Andrew Lawrie to score the winning goal with 26 seconds remaining in the game to silence the sell-out crowd. But the biggest story of the win was Dan Pyne whose play kept Penn State off the scoreboard for the last 24 minutes of the game. 

Penn State was the victor Saturday winning 4-1.  The game was closer than the score indicated as Penn State scored 3 power play goals during a 5 minute major penalty by Drexel with less than a minute left in the first period.  Penn State added their last goal on a deflection in front of the net with 2:42 left in the second period.  It is the only even strength goal Dan Pyne allowed in two games against Penn State.

Drexel played strong in the third period as Pyne continued to stymie Penn State’s offense.  Zak Blazic, Alex Cohen & Tom Buklarewicz got Drexel on the board with a power play goal late in the third period to avoid a shut out.
