Oakland v. Oklahoma: Who you got?
Rochester, MI The results of the final ACHA Division I Coach's Poll are in and Oakland remained at #12, meaning the Grizzlies made the tournament! The top 16 teams in the final coach's poll are invited to the ACHA Division I National Tournament in Rochester, NY March 1st through March 5th.
Capturing the 12th seed pits OU against another OU in the University of Oklahoma.
"It is very exciting being able to defend our National Title. I am looking forward to a very tough game with Oklahoma. Now we are just trying to prepare and get the team focused during the next week," stated Head Coach Sean Hogan.
Three- Peat?: Oakland has an opportunity to win three ACHA National Titles in a row. Oakland won the ACHA Division II National Title in 2006 and last season won the ACHA Division I Title.
