Someone in the Icers locker room needed to step up on Friday night. Chris Cerutti was that someone.
The Icers once again looked lethargic through the first 40 minutes against a younger, less-experienced West Chester Golden Rams team. The teams were tied 2-2 after 2 and it got worse just a minute into the 3rd period when Tim Margadonna put the Golden Rams back on top.
However, just 33 seconds later Taylor Cera knotted it up, setting the stage for Cerutti.
The junior forward scored two more, including a power play tally, for his first hat trick of the season as the Icers skated to a 5-3 victory.
Game two of the home-and-home series is tonight at the Ice Line in West Chester. Game time is scheduled for 7:30.
In off-ice news, the Penn State Board of Trustees voted Friday to appoint Crawford Architects of Kansas City, Mo., and Bohlin Cywinski Jackson of Wilkes-Barre, Pa., as architects for the design of the new arena.
Full details are on the Athletics Department website. I interviewed Joe Battista in the first intermission on Friday. I'll try to get the interview posted here after tonight's game.
