Irish Hockey Team Falls in Frozen Four Title Game
April 18, 2008
NOTRE DAME, Ind. -
The Notre Dame hockey team, making its ever appearance in the NCAA Frozen Four, fell 4-3 to Boston College in the title game Saturday in Denver.
The Irish had beaten CCHA rival Michigan 5-4 in overtime Thursday night to become the only number-four seed to advance to the championship contest.
Hundreds of hockey fans greeted the team upon its return to campus Sunday afternoon to celebrate the incredible post-season run by Coach Jeff Jackson's squad.
Many former Notre Dame hockey players attended the Frozen Four in Denver to lend their support. Those on hand were Ric Schafer, also a former Irish assistant and head coach; 2007 captain T.J. Jindra and classmates Tom Sawatske and Michael Bartlett; Brian Walsh and son Rory Walsh (who both played for Notre Dame); Jack Brownschidle, Lance Madsen and Chris Trick. Lefty Smith, Notre Dame's first hockey coach, was unable to attend because of his wife Micki's illness.
