RMU is now up to #13 in the PWR and ahead of powerhouses like Denver, Michigan, and Wisconsin. Crazy.

“If you look in the stands and heard the Penn State alumni and fans — how much fun was that to play in front of them?” Penn State coach Guy Gadowsky said.

In addition to sitting in front of Edzo, I was sitting behind the Kalamazoo Junior K-Wings who apparently had stopped to take in the games en route to their matchup in Johnstown today.

It was a pretty neat crowd. First class as you'd expect from the Pens.

The blowout loss to Army has killed them. Now out of the top 25.

PSU wraps up a 13-14 season with a 3-2 OT win at Wisconsin last night. 3-2 vs future B1G conference opponents including wins in Madison and East Lansing. Not too shabby for a first year team. Definitely exceeded my expectations.

The Lions were down 2-0 in the 3rd, too. It was awesome. So proud of that team!

Saw all but the first 13 mins of the 3rd. Different type of game with that larger rink surface. Great OT. Both had great chances.

The best is yet to come, as the Lions are a young team: Only 6 are seniors and 5 are juniors on a 26-guy roster. Freshmen carried most of the scoring this year. Can't wait for next year.

I can't wait to go to games this year. I didn't get season tickets because with the wedding/honeymoon and research it's going to be nuts, but I definitely am going to make it to quite a few.
