The Wisconsin women’s hockey team earned its seventh national title against the Ohio State Buckeyes Sunday afternoon in Duluth, Minnesota.
The Buckeyes entered the game viewed as the heavy favorites. As the reigning national champions, the Buckeyes won the WCHA regular season title, were ranked number one in the country and had a 3-0-1 record against the Badgers this season. To begin the match, the Badgers continued to ride redshirt senior Cami Kronish’s hot hand in net while the Buckeyes started junior goalie Amanda Thiele.
Not a team to shy away from a challenge, Wisconsin came out of the gates flying.
