As expected, the Ohio State women’s ice hockey team received the No. 1 seed in the upcoming NCAA Women’s Hockey Tournament despite losing the WCHA final. The defending national champions have had one whale of a season, ranked No. 1 for most of the year and following up last season with a regular season WCHA conference title.
The bracket was unveiled on Sunday with OSU hosting as the No. 1 seed in the Columbus region. The tournament starts on March 9, but the Buckeyes get a bye and will begin play on March 11, facing the winner of Quinnipiac and Penn State.
The other No. 1 seeds are Colgate, Minnesota, and Yale in the eleven-team field. The Buckeyes and Goldern Gophers join Wisconsin and Minnesota-Duluth as teams from the WCHA that got into the field.
