Sophomore goalie Connor Knapp became the third Miamian in school history - and the second this season - to record four shutouts in a season when he blanked Ohio State on Saturday.
Miami tied that game, 0-0 and lost the shootout. It was the third scoreless game in Miami history and the first since Feb. 7, 1998.
Reichard already has posted five zeroes this season, setting a single-season Miami record. Miami's all-time shutouts leader, David Burleigh, is the other player with a four-shutout season.
Knapp has six career shutouts, and Reichard has seven.
