Merrimack qualifies for NCAA Tournament despite loss
BOSTON — Despite Merrimack’s heartbreaking 2-1 overtime loss to Boston University in the Hockey East championship game on Saturday night, the Warriors will still dance into the NCAA Tournament next week.
St. Cloud State beat Colorado College 3-0 in the NCHC Championship game. That allowed Merrimack to claim the final at-large berth in the NCAA Tournament, which begins next week.
I’ll have a full bracket projection in a bit. But I believe the Warriors will likely end up in the Bridgeport regional against Quinnipiac in the first round.
