Northeastern vs. Wisconsin Women’s Hockey National Championship Preview
The NCAA Women’s Frozen Four concludes on Saturday when the top-seeded Northeastern Huskies (22-1-1) face-off against the second-seeded Wisconsin Badgers (16-3-1) in the national championship game.
Northeastern will be competing for their first national championship in any sport, while Wisconsin will be looking to win their sixth women’s ice hockey national title, which would tie the all-time mark.
The marquee matchup will feature two of the best players in the country – Northeastern’s senior goaltender Aerin Frankel and Wisconsin’s senior forward Daryl Watts. Frankel and Watts are two of the three finalists for the Patty Kazmaier Award, which is given to the top player in NCAA Division I women’s ice hockey.
Northeastern has been the hottest team in the nation spanning the last two seasons, with an NCAA-best 54 wins (54-5-3). The Huskies are riding a 22-game unbeaten streak, which included their 3-2 overtime victory over No. 5 Minnesota Duluth in the Frozen Four semifinals. Minnesota Duluth carried a 2-0 lead into the third period, but the Huskies responded with their backs to the wall, tying the game at two and forcing a sudden-death extra period. With 26 seconds remaining in OT, Northeastern’s senior defender Skylar Fontaine netted the game-winning goal to advance the Huskies to the national title game.
Fontaine has tallied the most points at the NCAA Championship this year, with five (3 goals, 2 assists). Her semifinal game-winner led her to eclipse the program record for most points for a defenseman with 122.
Frankel picked up her 20th win in net for the Huskies, which leads the nation. She also ranks first in the NCAA in goals-against average, save percentage, shutouts and goalie winning percentage.
While Northeastern will be playing in uncharted water, Wisconsin is accustomed to the stage they will take on Saturday night. The Badgers are playing in a record-tying seventh consecutive Frozen Four and appearing in their ninth national title game.
Wisconsin advanced to the championship game with a 4-2 win over Ohio State in the semifinals. The Badgers jumped on the Buckeyes with a goal just over a minute into the game and built a 3-0 lead halfway through the second period.
Watts netted a goal in the semifinal – her 17th, which ties her for first in the NCAA. She ranks second in the nation in points (34) and fifth with 17 assists.
The Huskies and Badgers met last in the Battle at the Burgh championship game on Jan. 5, 2020, where Wisconsin won 4-3 in OT.
