NCAA Division I Men's (Ice) Hockey Tournament 2015: Regional Semifinals

After the women championships were crowned over the weekend (Minnesota wins again in D-I), it's now the men's turn.

While half of this year's field for the NCAA Division I men's (ice) hockey tournament are from NCHC or WCHA, the other half has one big intriguing story: RIT.

RIT is back in the tournament for the first time since 2010, where they lost in the national semifinals at Ford Field. The Tigers got an automatic bid for winning the Atlantic Hockey tournament, thus making them the only AHA representative this year. Quite an amazing feat. They face top seed Minnesota State Mankato on Saturday on the campus of the University of Notre Dame.
