MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – The Gophers men's hockey tied scored a late goal to force overtime at Penn State Saturday night, but gave up an early goal in the extra session to lose 4-3 to the Nittany Lions for a weekend split.

Down 3-2 late in the third period, Minnesota pulled its goalie for an extra skater and capitalized on the advantage. Sam Warning scored the game-tying goal with 40 seconds left in regulation on assists from Kyle Rau and Hudson Fasching.

Penn State answered with a power-play goal a little more than two minutes into overtime to get the win. The Gophers still took four of a possible six points on the weekend.

Travis Boyd scored two power-play goals for the Gophers in the game. Adam Wilcox made 30 saves in net.

Minnesota (17-10-3, 8-3-3) hosts Michigan State Thursday and Friday night at Mariucci Arena.
