Western Michigan hockey is 60 minutes away from a national championship.
Appearing in their first-ever Frozen Four, the Broncos will face off Saturday night against Boston University in the NCAA title game at the Enterprise Center in St. Louis.
Coach Pat Ferschweiler’s team earned a spot in the matchup in thrilling fashion, knocking off reigning national champion Denver 3-2 in double overtime in the national semifinals Thursday. Western Michigan had squandered a 2-0 lead early in the third period, including the game-tying goal with 2:39 remaining in regulation.
