In what was one of the most bizarre endings to a regular season as of late, both the University of Wisconsin and University of Minnesota women’s hockey teams skated away from their finals series with neither a win nor a loss under their belts.
In typical Border Battle fashion, the No. 1 Badgers (27-2-4, 22-2-4 WCHA) and the No. 4 University of Minnesota, Twin Cities Golden Gophers (23-5-5, 19-4-5) fought tooth and nail to the final buzzers of both games last weekend.
With both squads giving everything they had, the series’ strategy shifted toward a war of attrition in the waning minutes of each match.
