Penn State women’s hockey remains at No. 12 in the USCHO Poll after a series sweep against Union, announced Monday. This was the fourth consecutive week the Nittany Lions were ranked No. 12.
The weekend sweep marked its first of the season as part of a strong 4-2 start. Penn State won 4-2 on Friday and 5-3 on Saturday. Forward Alyssa Machado grabbed five points on the weekend through three goals and two assists, also earning AHA Forward of the Week.
