The accolade is Kampersal’s third CHA Coach of the Year Award in four seasons, and he was given the recognition in the 2020-21, 2022-23, and 2023-24 seasons.

Since his hiring in 2017, Kampersal tallied a 118-78-40 record and three CHA regular-season titles.

Janecke, meanwhile, led the CHA in scoring with 16 goals and 36 assists this season. She was named to the First-Team All-CHA group and the CHA Forward of the Week four times.

Additionally, the forward led the nation in regular-season face-off wins with 558.

Kampersal, Janecke, and the Nittany Lions are gearing up for the CHA Tournament Championship set for 2 p.m. on Saturday, March 2, at Pegula Ice Arena. The matchup between Penn State and Mercyhurst can be streamed on BTN+.

From there, the blue and white will await likely slating in the NCAA Tournament, which is set to begin on Thursday, March 14.
