Women’s hockey: No. 1 Badgers face No. 4 Gophers in Border Battle season finale

The Wisconsin women’s hockey team ends their 2016-17 regular season this weekend in Minneapolis as the No. 1 Badgers face No. 4 University of Minnesota, Twin Cities.

Wisconsin (27-2-2-0, 22-2-2-0 WCHA) has been on a roll lately, defeating No. 2 University of Minnesota, Duluth last weekend in an intense series at home in the LaBahn Arena. With one more series before the Badgers enter WCHA playoffs, this game against the Gophers (23-5-3, 19-4-3) is crucial for Wisconsin.

Minnesota hasn’t fared quite as well as the Badgers since the last time these two teams met.
