DiMarsico paced the nation with four goals during the sweep of the Irish including his third hat-trick of the season in a 4-1 victory on Friday night. He potted the game-winning goal in each contest over the weekend after adding his fourth goal of the series on the powerplay in the finale on Saturday.
DiMarsico is the first Nittany Lion to register multiple hat-tricks in a single season as Penn State now has five on the year and 20 overall. The three goals mark his third multi-goal effort of the season and the fifth of his career while it was his sixth multi-point effort this season and the 18th of his career.
DiMarsico now leads the team in goals (14) and points (26) while his 14 goals are tied for second in the Big Ten and eighth in the nation.

The rookie leads the Nittany Lions with 14 points (3G, 11A) in 12 Big Ten games this season, a mark good for sixth in conference only scoring.
