COLUMBUS, Ohio – Sixty minutes wasn’t enough to decide the WCHA Final Faceoff champion on Sunday afternoon as the third-ranked Ohio State women’s hockey team appeared poised to write another thrilling chapter in the story of its 2020-21 season. A goal by Wisconsin’s Lacey Eden, however, just 42 seconds into overtime lifted the second-ranked Badgers to a 3-2 victory at Ridder Arena in Minneapolis.
“We battled. There were no excuses, it’s playoff hockey,” said head coach Nadine Muzerall. “You sell out and do everything you can and need to do. We did that. We had an opportunity to get the puck out twice – it bounced over a stick and then hit off a skate badly that kept it in. It’s unfortunate but Wisconsin capitalized on that.”
