Ohio State Women's Hockey Advances to National Title Game After Defeating Cornell

The Ohio State women's basketball team faced disappointment in the NCAA Tournament once again, losing to the Tennessee Lady Vols 82-67 in the second round after leading early in the game. Despite having home-court advantage, the Buckeyes struggled with turnovers, committing 23 compared to Tennessee's 14, which ultimately cost them the game. This marks the second consecutive year Ohio State has been upset at home by a lower seed in the tournament. In contrast, the Ohio State women's ice hockey team advanced to its fourth consecutive national championship game, defeating Cornell 4-2, with Joy Dunne scoring two crucial third-period goals to secure the victory. The Buckeyes had initially led 2-0, but Cornell rallied to tie the game before Ohio State regained control and held on for the win. The women's hockey team is now poised to compete for its third national title in four years.
