No. 12 Penn State Women’s Hockey Sweeps CHA Weekly Awards

No. 12 Penn State women’s hockey is rolling, folks.

After the team’s sweep of Long Island University (LIU) over the weekend, the Nittany Lions took over College Hockey America’s (CHA) weekly honors.

Junior Kiara Zanon took home Forward of the Week after scoring three goals and notching an assist against the Sharks. Zanon had a hand in four of the Nittany Lions’ eight goals while also recording a pair of blocks.

Senior Izzy Heminger won Defenseman of the Week after recording four assists against LIU, including an assist for freshman Tessa Jenecke’s game-winner on Friday.

Junior Josie Bothun earned Goaltender of the Week after allowing just four goals across both games against the Sharks. In total, Bothun turned away 36 of the 40 shots she faced, recording a save percentage of .900.

Janecke took home Rookie of the Week following her two-goal, three-assist series against the Sharks. Most notably, she scored the game-winning goal that gave Penn State its 4-3 win Friday night. Janecke also recorded a goal and three assists in the Nittany Lions’ 4-1 win on Saturday.

The Nittany Lions will return to action at 6 p.m. on Friday, January 13, when they kick off a two-game home series against RIT.
