“We want to thank Dr. Kraft for continuing to expand the goal posts, or in this case eliminate them, so we can have an outdoor game at Beaver Stadium,” stated women’s hockey head coach Jeff Kampersal. “This opportunity is momentous and historical for Penn State Hockey. Considering all the legendary moments the men in black shoes and basic blues have created on this turf, WE ARE looking forward to creating some of our own and making Penn State proud. Thank you, Pat!”
The women’s ice hockey team is also coming off an incredible 2024-25 campaign which saw the Nittany Lions set a program-record with 31 wins, including an AHA record 19 conference victories en route to their third-straight league championship and NCAA Tournament appearance.
Senior Tessa Janecke, who was also named a second-team All-American, as well as a Patty Kaz Finalist, earned both AHA Player and Forward of the Year honors. She tied her own single-season record with 53 points on 24 goals and 29 assists while becoming the program’s all-time leading scorer with 153 points for her career.
