Thanks to winning six national championships since 2006, the UW women’s hockey program has a very high standard of excellence. But despite winning nearly 75% of their games this season, the Badgers lost nine games, the most since 2013, and are sitting in third in the WCHA standings, behind Ohio State and Minnesota. That means this weekend’s conference tournament series against Minnesota State might be fans’ last chance to see the Badgers play at home this year, as they will likely play on the road in the first round of the NCAA tournament. In four games during the regular season, the Badgers outscored the Mavericks 18-4, so fans should see plenty of pucks in the net at LaBahn Arena, which can get rowdy if Wisconsin is rolling. It’s a best-of-three series with games  at 7 p.m. on Friday, 3 p.m. Saturday, and 3:30 p.m. Sunday (only if necessary).

media release: The No. 6 Wisconsin women’s hockey team opens postseason play with a WCHA First Round playoff series against Minnesota State this weekend at LaBahn Arena. Puck drop on Friday is set for 7 p.m. while Saturday’s contest will begin at 3 p.m. If a third game is necessary for the best-of-three series, that would take place on Sunday at 3:30 p.m.

Tickets for Friday and Saturday’s games are available on UWBadgers.Com, while tickets for Sunday’s game would go on sale immediately after the conclusion of Saturday’s contest.
