Tonight's game marks two firsts.

First time this program has made 4 consecutive NCAA tournaments.

It's also the first time we won a must win conference championship game to make the NCAAs.

Granted the scenario unfolded exactly like this just one other time, the 1982 CCHA title game against Michigan State. But the pattern held in all the other years this program missed out on an NCAA berth.

Our record now in conference title games is 5-1. Wins in 2019, 2018, 2013, 2009 and 2007 and the loss was that 1982 game.
