Badgers Beat Buckeyes in WCHA Semifinals

The 2019 WCHA Final Face Off semifinals closed with a match between Wisconsin and Ohio State at Ridder Arena Saturday evening. The Badgers were on the attack from the moment the puck dropped, but the Buckeyes were ready for them and regularly forced them to have to clear their own zone. Still, Wisconsin quickly outpaced them on both shots and zone times despite goaltender Andrea Braendli shutting down whatever the team in front of her was unable to halt. Caitlin Schneider had a great chance on Braendli after coming up the left side. Then Sophie Shirley was denied on the doorstep after weaving her way though center of OCU’s zone.
