The entire season has been building up to this.
Since Ohio State women’s hockey suffered a 1-0 loss to Wisconsin in last year’s national championship game, the Buckeyes have set their sights on this year’s Frozen Four final for another shot at winning it all. Now that they’ve gotten there, they have a chance to directly avenge that loss when they play the Badgers again in the season’s final game on Sunday.
As the top two teams in the national rankings for much of the season, the Buckeyes and Badgers have been on a collision course toward a national championship game rematch for months.
