Got there a little late today, and missed the 1st quarter and much of the 2nd, but saw a great second half. Penn really took over and dominated time of possession in the 2nd half, winning many of the faceoffs, and moving the ball well. They also did a great job clearing in what was a pretty bruising game - Nova drew a bunch of penalties in the second half on pushes, illegal checks, etc. The Andrzejewski brothers were great in the second half, each with a hat trick.

Klossner and Canuso both looked decent, but not spectacular. Canuso broke up a few cross crease passes in the 4th quarter to keep the score where it was, but had trouble on a couple of clears. Klossner got beat on a few close in shots in the second half as a result of some missed slides. But, 13 saves each - a pretty solid effort.

Fun game to watch.

Yes…good game to watch. . Both teams seemed tight in the first quarter. Villanova seemed to be finding their rhythm in the second quarter and had Penn down 4-2 at the half. Penn came out and played a good second half.

And, whadya know, following the weekend, Penn received 25 votes for the top 20! Maybe they can crack the top 20 this year and get back to where they were 2 seasons ago. Go Quakers!
