Lacey Eden scored early and the Badgers crushed the Buckeyes at LaBahn Arena to start a series that'll finish Saturday in Chicago.
The Badgers wasted little time getting ahead of their archrival, No. 2 Ohio State, and the blowout has to be wiped ahead of a rematch outdoors.
Gov. Tony Evers on Jan. 3 signed Executive Order No. 250, in coordination with the Wisconsin Departments of Natural Resources, Administration, and Transportation, to comply with National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) guidelines for floodplain management regulations on state-owned properties.
The Badgers rallied for a 3-3 tie but didn't get to celebrate after Ohio State won the shootout for the extra point in the standings.
Steven Crowl tied his season high with 18 points and the Badgers rolled in a game they couldn't afford to lose.
Sarah Wozniewicz's third-period goal gave the top-ranked Badgers a sweep of Minnesota Duluth and a 16-game unbeaten streak.
Badgers fans lined the ropes around the red carpet as players, coaches and staff members entered Ridder Arena for Sunday's NCAA championship game.
