Western Michigan dominates Boston U, wins NCAA men's hockey title

NCAA hockey championship:

ST. LOUIS - The game was played here at Enterprise Center Saturday night, but if you closed your eyes and only listened to the crowd, you would have thought it was in Kalamazoo.

Western Michigan Broncos fans were about 10 times louder than Boston University’s traveling partisans on the decibel meter.

Imagine, then, how loud it was when the final buzzer sounded at the NCAA hockey championship game. When it did, Broncos fans practically blew the roof off, exulting in the 52-year-old program’s first national title, winning 6-2.
