The University of Minnesota-Duluth Bulldogs and the U of M Gophers have found out who they’ll be facing and where in NCAA Division 1 men’s college hockey finals.
The Bulldogs, who on Saturday beat North Dakota in the final of the NCHC Frozen Four, are ranked No. 1 in the West Regional finals and No. 2 overall.
Bulldogs fans won’t have too far to go as their team will play in Fargo in the first round, as they take on Ohio State at 5:30 p.m. central time Friday, which will be shown live on ESPNU.
If they make it past Ohio State, the Bulldogs face a re-match with North Dakota in the quarter finals, provided they get past Boston U.
