It’s the game that Minnesota fans have been expecting all season long. The #1 and the #2 teams for the absolute majority of the season playing hockey for sixty minutes to determine who gets to call themselves the 2019 NCAA Champion. The Minnesota Golden Gophers against the Wisconsin Badgers for all the marbles, all the Tostito’s, all of the cheese. It all comes down to one last game for bragging rights, and for a title. Let’s go!
The Gophers reached the title game by defeating Cornell 2-0 on Friday. Nicole Schammel got the Gophers on the board in the second period on a rebound goal on the power play and Sarah Potomak added an empty netter to clinch the win late in the third.
