From the St. Paul Civic Center: WCHA semifinals Minnesota 3, Wisconsin 2 Northern Michigan 8, North Dakota 4 Minnesota ran up a 3-0 lead, but let Wisconsin back into the game in the third period, with Badgers' Sean Hill scoring in the last minute to make the score 3-2. Trent Klatt, Larry Olimb, and Jason Miller (shorthanded) accounted for the Gopher scoring. North Dakota played solidly for the first 40 minutes, but Northern Michigan took charge in the third to win 8-4. The Sioux had leads of 2-0 and 4-2, but were unable to withstand the Wildcats' attack in the third period. North Dakota and Wisconsin play for third place at 2:05 Monday, with Minnesota and Northern Michigan meeting for the championship at 7:05. Fans who have attended tournaments at the St. Paul Civic Center the past few years are aware of the problems the arena has had with too-warm temperatures and soft ice. I am happy to report that improvements have been made to the climate control system, so the building stays cool and the ice remains hard and fast. -- Erik **************************************************************************** Erik Biever --GOLDEN GOPHER MMMMM MMMMM St. Paul, Minnesota - Home of the --HOCKEY MM MM MM MM 1991 WCHA & NCAA Championships --Fastest Game MM MMMM MM BITNET: e-biev@uminn1 --In Town MM MMMMMM MM INTERNET: [log in to unmask] MMMMM MMMMM
