One red-shirt, senior  goalie Matt Bersano, won B1G Defensive Player of the Week for the second time while making seven saves versus OSU. The team will take on Penn tonight at 7 p.m. in Philadelphia and will host Michigan on Sunday at 2 p.m.

On the women's side, it was a heart-breaking 1-0 loss to Minnesota on Sunday following a great win on Thursday over the Badgers. Even when the effort is not enough for a win, goalie Britt Eckerstrom continues to play well. The women will play a pair of B1G road matches over the weekend, starting in Nebraska on Friday and at Iowa on Sunday.
