Through all the ups and downs this season, the Mercyhurst women’s hockey team still finds itself in a familiar position. Now Mercyhurst (21-7-3, 12-4-1 CHA) can capture its 13th straight regular-season championship in the conference — and 15th in a row overall — with a win or a tie in today’s 2 p.m. game against the Nittany Lions (15-12-4, 9-6-2). The Lakers have a five-point lead over Penn State with three games left.
