UW women win WCHA championship

The University of Wisconsin scored three times on the power play, Meghan Horras stopped 28 shots and the Badgers beat Minnesota, 4-1, on Sunday in the WCHA Women's Championship game in Minneapolis.

The victory gives third-ranked UW (33-4-1) an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament quarterfinals.

UW's Cyndy Kenyon continued her weekend scoring surge 5:14 into the game, deflecting a pass from Meaghan Mikkelson into the Minnesota net for a power-play tally. Kenyon, who scored four times in Saturday's semifinal victory over St. Cloud State, scored just eight times in the regular season.

"I told the team I was saving it for the playoffs and that the first 35 games were just a warm up," she joked. "Seriously, I was just in the right place at the right time this weekend. Sara Bauer is such an amazing player and she found ways to get the puck to me. I give her lots of credit."

Bauer had four assists Saturday and three on Sunday.

Allie Sanchez scored the lone goal for No. 4 Minnesota (27-10-1).

[Rolly22]

Women? Who gives a rat's behind.

[PierBridge]

Rolly your going to care when your daughter makes more in her first year in the W-NHL than you made your whole carreer....

[otto_man]

Us folks over here in Wisconsin will take anything we can get when it comes to spanking you folks from over there in Minnesota...

[buzzsaw]

You said "Spanking"

[fishyguy]

And I was just getting over that defeat in the Women's swimming and diving duals....When will it ever end?

[Raj22]

Yeah, and that will really add up when hes got 4 of them.

[Rolly22]

Hey c'mon now, I did OK. Actually, I'm working right now, so you're probably right!! Yeah, Raj, just something in the water where I lived. How many boys you got??

[Raj22]

Hey, at least I had sense enough to quit at 2. Mans got to know his limitations.

[Master Guide]

Good point Rolly, I only got girls myself.

As for the womens hockey...............lets hope my girls were better at hockey than I was.

[otto_man]

Just a quick congrats to the Badger ladies, National Champs!!!

[buzzsaw]

otto, you are the man! Here are some facts for ya.

Minnesota was denied the opportunity to become only the third program in the history of college hockey to win three straight national titles. Only Michigan's men of 1951-53 and Minnesota-Duluth's women of 2001-03 can claim this feat. Coupled with the loss this weekend on the men's side, it also marks the first year since 2001 in which Minnesota failed to win a national championship in ice hockey.

The championship was Wisconsin's first in ice hockey since the men's triumph in 1990.

Maybe your teams can get to level we have been at for years on the west side of the St. Croix.

....and then we can hop over to the football forum and i can tell you how wisconsin football has been smacking you around for years!!!

on and on we go, where it stops,,,, wait it won't!!

[buzzsaw]

Don't leave out the mighty Bucks and Brew Crew! If were heading to the football forum, when is Favre-vous going to tell the world, I mean the packer fans if he is retiring or not? It's like that team is a hostage to his indecisions, whatcha think? I think they'll pull a Detroit Lion move and draft another QB on April 29th.

[otto_man]

Favre is coming back otherwise they would have signed Nall. Just don't know if i want him back unless of course he throws 40 td's and 10 int's then he'll be my hero again!!

[otto_man]

...and tell me again how many championships the t-wolves have??

I agree with quackaddict! I think the Bucks must have won a championship with the artist formely know as Lew Alcindor?? I'm not sure? You forgot to mention the Brew crew in your comeback I know you were a Gorman Thomas fan right? How about Yount, Molitor, bevaqua, Gantner, Sixto "freegin' Lezcano, Moose Haas, Sal bando, Cecil Cooper, Lenny Sakata, Ben Oglivie, larry Hisle need I go on with the great history of your Brewers? I mean C'mon Otto, where's that pride?

[Rolly22]

That guy that slides into the big mug of beer when the Brewers hit a homer is funny.

[Hockey Guy]

C’mon. This is a hockey forum. You know, the only real man’s sport out there besides maybe football. The Twins are fun if they make it to the playoffs and if I get sick of watching my grass grow. As for basketball, I don’t consider that a sport at all. It’s more like a hobby or something to do for exercise, like bowling or racketball. Besides, didn’t the T’wolves move to another state a few years ago? What are you guys talking about them for?

Let’s get back to hockey. I will take Wisconsin to win it all. That defense is crazy good! Twelve shutout periods? And in the playoffs? These boys are on a roll. As long as the Gophers thought the hockey season ends in February, I say “Go Red”.

[Rolly22]

It's about time someone slapped some sense into this post. Hockey it is. I'm hoping for an all WCHA final and a multi OT game in the final. I could never pull for UW, so the Sioux it is.

[buzzsaw]

Bernie Brewer and it'll be Boston College taking out the Sioux one more time in the big game.

[otto_man]

Badgers will win it ALL while the Gophers sit back and ponder what might have been if...
