Gophers to face Wisconsin in Final Faceoff second semifinal Friday;
Minnesota Duluth and Ohio State to meet in first game

All four WCHA quarterfinal series completed with the higher-seeded home teams advancing, as Minnesota eliminated Minnesota State, Ohio State defeated Bemidji State, Wisconsin knocked out St. Thomas, and Minnesota Duluth bested St. Cloud State.  As a result, the 3rd-seeded Gophers will face the Badgers in the second of the Kwik Trip WCHA Final Faceoff semifinal games, scheduled for 4:30 p.m. this upcoming Friday, March 8, at Ridder Arena.  The Buckeyes and Bulldogs will square off in the first semifinal at 1:00 p.m.  Friday's winners will advance to the championship game Saturday, March 9, at 2:00 p.m.

We will recap the quarterfinal series and preview the Final Faceoff match-ups in our regular edition of the Penalty Box Post later this week.  The WCHA has created a Final Faceoff Tournament Central site loaded with information.
