The No. 1 seed Buckeyes topped No. 2 seed and defending champion Denver, 5-1, in the NCAA Championship Midwest Regional final in Allentown, Pa. advancing to the NCAA Frozen Four. Ohio State is making its second Frozen Four trip and first since 1998. The Scarlet and Gray improve to 26-9-5 on the year and Denver closes its season 23-10-8.

"It's a really a proud moment for me, for these guys, for the 27 players and my staff. I couldn’t be luckier to be a part of something like this. To go into a game against a team like that, defending champions, very talented, I just give our guys a lot of credit. We were resilient tonight." - head coach Steve Rohlik
"The Big Ten doesn’t get as much attention as it deserves but three teams making it to the Final Four obviously speaks for itself and it’s a really tough conference and there are a lot of tough teams you have to play every weekend." - Dakota Joshua
