With the Professional Women’s Hockey League going through such a historic rise, it’s great to see so many Badgers thriving and also have a place to play at the next level.
For now, though, all eyes remain laser-focused on the upcoming 2026-27 season, one that sees legendary head coach Mark Johnson look to do something that’s never been done in Madison, and that’s win a third straight National Championship.
