Joy Dunne scores back-to-back goals and Ohio State beats Cornell 4-2 in women's Frozen Four semis

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Joy Dunne scored back-to-back goals in the third period to reach 28 on the season and No. 2 seed Ohio State beat No. 3 seed Cornell 4-2 in the first women's Frozen Four semifinal on Friday night.

Ohio State (29-7-3) advances to its fourth straight national title game on Sunday. The Buckeyes improved to 12-3 in six Frozen Four appearances – all occurring during Nadine Muzerall’s nine-year tenure as head coach.

Cornell (25-5-5) was in the Frozen Four for the first time since 2019.

Dunne scored on a one-timer, after a nice individual effort by Makenna Webster, for a 3-2 lead nearly four minutes into the third period.
