Worcester, MA – This time of year, every team is going to face adversity. For the Gophers, they got it out of the way early.

Gophers Advance to Big Ten Title Game with 3-2 Win Over Penn State

Minneapolis, MN – “Hopefully that was our clunker.” Gopher coach Bob Motzko was critical of his Gopher team following their semifinal victory against Penn State Saturday night, and his assessment was not inaccurate.
