The Minnesota Gophers played their WCHA Final Face-off Championship this past weekend into the #2 overall seed in the NCAA Tournament. Sunday morning the NCAA announced the 2023 Women’s Hockey Tournament bracket. The Gophers will host a quarterfinal matchup at 2PM Saturday against the winner of the first round game between #7 seeded Minnesota-Duluth and #9 seeded Clarkson. The winner of the quarterfinal will advance to the NCAA Frozen Four March 17th and 19th in Duluth.
If the brackets were set out perfectly chalk, UMD would be playing the #10 seed Penn State the winner of the CHA conference.
