Sunday’s selection show revealed that Wisconsin would be in the Worcester Regional with No. 1 Michigan State.
Fortunately for the Badgers, they don’t have to face the Spartans right off the bat. Wisconsin will face the aforementioned Dartmouth team, one that features Hayden Stavroff, the country’s leading scorer with 29 goals.
Keep in mind that Dartmouth just played on March 21, while the Badgers’ early exit from the Big Ten tournament means they haven’t played since March 11.
Michigan State will face UConn in the top half of the Worcester Regional. Both regional semifinal games will take place on March 26.
If Wisconsin were victorious over Dartmouth, they would play either the Spartans or the Huskies in the regional final on March 28.Advertisement
The men’s Frozen Four kicks off on April 9 and kicks off on the 11th from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, NV.
