AHA Women’s Final Frame (Jan. 9, 2026)

Penn State earned its 10th shutout of the season, RIT swept Delaware and Syracuse also took a road victory.

BOSTON - Three Atlantic Hockey America (AHA) programs left the ice with regulation wins on the road following Friday’s action.

No. 4/4 Penn State downed (RV) Mercyhurst 3-0 in Erie, Pa. Freshman goaltender Maddy Campbell made 27 saves and blanked a program for the third time this season and helped the Nittany Lions earn their 10th team shutout of the season, a figure that leads Division I.

All three Penn State goals were netted by different Nittany Lions.

Following a goal in regulation’s final minute of play and escaping with a 3-2 victory on Thursday, RIT was able to find a groove and take a decisive 8-1 victory to clinch the sweep of Delaware.

Sophomore forward Brac Kelley (2G-1A),  junior defenseman Emma Pickering (2G-1A) and freshman defenseman Cassandra Kehler (3A) all tallied three points in the contest.

The Tigers potted three power play goals and still lead the nation with 29 this season.

Syracuse also benefited from three different goal scorers in Friday’s 3-0 shutout victory in the first of two contests against Robert Morris.

Orange goaltender Ava Drabyk made 19 saves in her fourth shutout of the season, which leads all Division I freshmen netminders.
