Another 20-year streak bites the dust. On Sunday, No. 1 seed Ohio State defeated reigning NCAA champ and No. 2 seed Denver in the NCAA tournament's Midwest regional final. With the win, the men's hockey Buckeyes are back in the Frozen Four for the first time since 1998.
| Scoring by Period | 1 | 2 | 3 | Final |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| No. 2 Denver | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 |
| No. 1 Ohio State | 0 | 2 | 3 | 5 |
The regional final bore a great deal of resemblance to the Bucks' regional semifinal victory over Princeton.
