The University of Wisconsin women’s hockey team kicked off their season at the end of September, entering a four-month grind that will come to a conclusion with the NCAA National Championship Game March 24 in Durham, New Hampshire.

Despite an average regular season, in terms of UW women’s hockey, the group went on a run in the playoffs in 2022. Eventually, they took down Big Ten foes in Ohio State 1-0 to secure the national championship last season.

The storylines emerged of goaltender Cami Kronish turning in a shutout in the most needed moments, in addition to Mark Johnson earning his seventh national championship in his 21-year-tenure as the leader of the Badgers.
