Wisconsin women's hockey: Badgers rout Minnesota State 8-1, earn WCHA regular season championship

MADISON -- In their final home game of the regular season the Wisconsin women's hockey team showed the sold-out crowd some Valentine's Day love and gifted them with the program's fifth regular season conference title with an 8-1 win over Minnesota State.

It's the fifth time the Badgers have won the regular season crown and the first since 2012.

"It’s amazing. It was an emotional weekend for everyone. To be able to do it on home ice in front of a sellout crowd and for the seniors, that was pretty special," said sophomore Emily Clark.

Coach Mark Johnson said he told his team to be especially proud of this win since it's the culmination of a full season of work.
