It’s official. The best goal scorer in Big Ten conference history is a Team 91 alum.

’16 Mac O’Keefe has been terrorizing goalies for four years, and Saturday, he became the conference’s all-time leading goal scorer and celebrated by hammering home the overtime game-winner as Penn State downed Penn, 18-17.

O’Keefe’s third of four goals on the game gave him 185 career markers, which slots him into the top spot in Big Ten history. O’Keefe finished with four goals, one assist, two ground balls and a caused turnover as the Nittany Lions moved to 4-1.

’17 Sean Lulley (Half Hollow Hills East) was brilliant yet again for the Quakers, handing out a whopping six assists to go with two goals, five ground balls and a caused turnover. Three of Lulley’s assists came 3:18 apart in the fourth quarter, including setting up the game-tying goal with 16 seconds to play.
