Hockey: Ohio looks to bounce back against Drexel

Ohio is coming off a tough weekend. Its storied rival, Liberty, ended up completing a sweep against Ohio, securing victory with a 3-4 score on both nights. The Flames were playing with a lot of grit and speed, and the Bobcats simply lacked the energy to keep up. This was a consistent issue for the Bobcats at the beginning of the season, but it has since dissipated. Now that it’s rearing its horns once again, Ohio needs to bounce back with a win this weekend. Facing Drexel in just one game on Saturday, here is everything you need to know about the matchup.
