2025-26 Penn State Nittany Lions

Penn State shutout Mercyhurst 3-0, with Maddy Campbell in net and Lauren Hernick as backup goalie - Katie DeSa wasn't even in the lineup, and neither was Matilde Fantin.
 
Outwater was back from injury. Desa must still have her injury. Fantin received a game misconduct the last game and I'm not sure if it carried over and maybe it did. Campbell does not lack confidence.
 
Good for the AHA with Mercyhurst winning in ot and bad for PSU. Mercyhurst is always ready to turn the tables on PSU.
In the three previous games against Mercyhurst this season, Penn State had outscored them 12-1, with two shutouts. Since the holiday break, their shots on goal are way down, and now the Olympics are taking Janecke, Hall, and Fantin away, so they better get their mojo back on track for the Olympic stretch.
 
The coaching staff has some work to do on figuring out lines and pairings with the three players being out for the Olympics.

Perhaps there should be a Janecke, Fantin and Hall line in Syracuse tonight so that the other lines can be figured out when PSU has to play without those three.

Congratulations to Janecke, Fantin and Hall and to Penn State for this accomplishment.
 
Penn State beat Syracuse 4-1 tonight on goals from Mya Vaslet, Grace Outwater, Kendall Butze, and Tessa Janecke. Shots on goal were 40-14 for Penn State, so it's good to see them back up there with shots on goal. No sign of Katie DeSa or Matilde Fantin again, so who knows? I'm wondering if Fantin is already with Team Italy prepping for the Olympics.
 
Katie DeSa was not listed on the lineup for the fourth-straight game with an undisclosed injury. Matilde Fantin also wasn’t in the lineup as she is practicing with the Italian national team ahead of the upcoming Olympic Games.

Campbell is filling in for Desa nicely.
