Isaac Howard's standout performance helped Michigan State secure a 6-4 victory against Penn State in an away game on Friday. The Spartans, now holding the top position in the Big Ten with 27 points, improved their road record to 7-1-1 and extended their unbeaten streak to eight games.
Howard's contribution of four goals and an assist marked a personal achievement as he overtook the national scoring lead with 32 points for the season. His effort was critical as MSU rallied from a two-goal deficit early in the game. Karsen Dorwart added to MSU's tally with a goal and two assists, while Charlie Stramel contributed three assists.
Penn State goalie Arsenii Sergeev made 39 saves during the match. Despite strong performances from players like Charlie Cerrato, who had a goal and an assist, Penn State could not hold off MSU's offense.
The teams are set to conclude their weekend series on Saturday night.
