Relentless defense was on display all weekend as the Panthers simply dominated the ice against Ohio State. "After a long bus trip, the game on Saturday was a bit slower paced than were used to, but we were really grinding and got the win." Assistant Coach Megan Doyen said of her team after Sunday's victory. When asked about Sunday's victory, Megan added: "From the first drop of the puck we were connecting passes and had double the chances we had on Saturday. The majority of the game was played in their zone, as we really moved the puck well. We are pleased with the sweep!"
 
The Panthers will travel to Madison next weekend as they look to remain unbeaten against the Wisconsin Badgers. Both games will be played on Saturday and Sunday, with Saturday's game starting at 5:30 p.m. and Sundays game starting at 12:15 p.m.
