How to watch Penn State vs. UConn NCAA D1 hockey regional final How to watch Penn State play for a spot in the NCAA Frozen Four
A spot inthe NCAA Frozen Four will be on the line Sunday afternoon in Allentown when Penn State and UConn meet in a regional final. Both programs are looking to join Western Michigan as first-time participants in the Frozen Four, and the two programs will meet for the first time since 2014. The two programs have come a long way since those previous matchups in Penn State's early years as a Division 1 program.
UConn leads the all-time series 2-1-1. There may be a little extra adrenaline going in this one for Penn State goalie Arsenil Sergeev because he transferred to Penn State from UConn last year.
Penn State advanced to the regional final with an upset victory over Hockey East champion Maine on Friday night. UConn fell short to Maine in the Hockey East championship game but rebounded with a 4-1 victory over Quinnipiac in the first round of the NCAA tournament on Friday.
The winner of Sunday afternoon's game will reach the Frozen Four stage for the first time and will face college hockey blueblood Boston University in St. Louis. Western Michigan has already punched its ticket to St. Louis and will face either Boston College or Denver in the Frozen Four in the other half of the bracket.

UConn's Dan Hurley is Trending After Major Knicks Coaching News
UConn's Dan Hurley is Trending After Major Knicks Coaching News originally appeared on Athlon Sports. UConn men's basketball coach Dan Hurley, who has won two NCAA titles with the program, could have been hired by the Los Angeles Lakers in June 2024. In fact, the New Jersey native turned down their six-year, $70 million contract offer to remain with the Huskies, via ESPN. Advertisement The Lakers then hired 2006 No. 11 overall pick JJ Redick, who had never previously coached other than volunteering with his nine-year-old son's team at Brooklyn Basketball Academy. Los Angeles went 50-32 and earned the Western Conference's third seed under his leadership this season before getting bounced in the first round by the Minnesota Timberwolves. Meanwhile, Hurley took UConn to the second round of the NCAA Tournament, losing 77-75 to No. 1 Florida. Now, he's being mentioned by fans on social media as a worthy candidate for the New York Knicks after they fired Tom Thibodeau on Tuesday. Connecticut Huskies head coach Dan Hurley.© Michael Chow/The Republic / USA TODAY NETWORK Knicks Film School's DJ Zullo floated the idea that New York could have a better shot at landing Hurley than Los Angeles did in 2024. Advertisement "The same people that felt confident Hurley would turn down the Lakers do NOT share that same optimism should the Knicks come calling," he said. "If there was ever a time and a team for Dan Hurley to jump to the NBA…it's now. The Knicks are the one job he would covet," another person said. "They are a championship contender with great leaders and an All-NBA lead guard." "I absolutely hate this [Thibodeau's firing]. Awful. Terrible. But... I've said that if the Knicks make change there's only 1 name. Dan Hurley," another one said. "I think Dan Hurley to the Knicks is like a 35% possibility, but I think they will go another direction," another one said. "Just a hunch, but time moves quickly and he's not the flavor of the month anymore." Advertisement "The Knicks need Dan Hurley," another one said. "This guy is one of the best basketball coaches in the world at any level. He will take them to a level they won't even believe, like he did with UConn, and bring a championship back to NY for the first time in 52 years. It's an obvious move."

However, Arkansas will have to avoid letting the previous disappointment More on Arkansas With loss in College World Series, Dave Van Horn and Arkansas facing another postseason heartbreak LSU vs. UCLA LSU 6, UCLA 2 With how pitcher-friendly Charles Schwab Field has played, it's difficult to bet against Anthony Eyanson, the Tigers' co-ace. LSU has the ability to score runs in many different ways and its pitching is still fresh after a long start from Kade Anderson. Everything sets up well for LSU in this one.
