The Irish now sit alone atop the Big Ten standings with 10 conference points on the year. Penn State (9) and Minnesota (7) sit directly behind.

Jordan Pearce (2005-09) leads the way all-time with 59.
The award is the twelfth time Morris has been named one of the Big Ten’s Three Stars of the Week as he’s been named top-star six times, and second and third-star both three times now.
Senior forward Patrick Khodorenko of Michigan State top away this week’s first-star honors while freshman forward Alex Turcotte of Wisconsin took home the second-star.
Morris and the Irish will travel to Madison to take on Turcotte and the Badgers for a two-game series this weekend. Both games starting at 8 pm ET on Saturday and Sunday with the Badgers still looking for their first conference win.
