The WCHA announced Monday that the league staff has reviewed the events at the end of the Ohio State at Minnesota game from Oct. 19.
“The WCHA does not support fighting and acts of aggression that result in player safety concerns and reflect poorly on our league,” said a league statement.
In addition to the penalties that have already been assessed (Minnesota’s Gracie Graham and OSU’s Kassidy Carmichael each received game disqualifications at the end of the game), the WCHA has identified that Minnesota’s Chloe Primerano and Ohio State’s Jordyn Petrie escalated the events. They each receive a one-game suspension and will sit out their next game.
