Laura Fuoco tallied her first goal of the season in the Friday night matchup against the Raiders, coming on a power play midway through the second period with Kenzie Bachelor and Izee Powell picking up the assists.

Dartmouth suffered a 4-2 loss the following day to the Big Red. Powell and Bachelor both scored inside the final three minutes of the third period. Powell scored on the power play for her third tally of the year, and Bachelor scored an extra attacker goal with 17 seconds remaining.

Penn State enters the weekend with a 6-7-1 overall record and a 5-1-0 record in College Hockey America. The Nittany Lions are coming off a split weekend in conference play against Mercyhurst.

Tessa Janecke has a team-high 12 points, posting one goal and 11 assists. Mya Vaslet leads Penn State in goals with five. Six players are tied for second with three apiece. Brianna Brooks is second on the team in assists with six while Julie Gough, Alyssa Machado and Maggie MacEachern all have four.
