Penn State men’s hockey added graduate student goaltender Chris McFayden to its roster.

The Mars, PA native joins the Nittany Lions after John Seifarth’s exit from the team earlier this season. Like Seifarth, McFayden will move up from the Penn State Ice Lions (ACHA). He was in his third season playing for the Ice Lions.

McFayden is a mechanical engineering graduate and is getting his MBA in the Smeal College of Business.

McFayden and the rest of the Nittany Lions will face LIU at 7:30 p.m. Friday, October 17, at Pegula Ice Arena.
