While some football and basketball shenanigans have been going on, very quietly the Ohio State men’s hockey team has been putting together a pretty good season. The team was 12-5-2 heading into a contest vs. Army in the Fortress Invitational in Las Vegas Saturday night, and hold a national No. 6/7 ranking.
So yeah, there’s more than football and basketball going on folks and it might be time to take notice.
The Buckeyes kept it going again last night in a thriller too. They fell behind early to Army in the first period, but then evened things up when Tanner Laczynski lit the lamp on a shorthanded goal in the second period. From there, it was a defensive struggle that went to overtime.
From there, just 1:17 in, senior Carson Meyer got one past the Black Knights goalie to win in dramatic fashion.
ICYMI … (late) last night, the Buckeyes downed Army in OT in the @FortressInvVGK.
