Adrian to play for D-III championship

Compiled by MiCHO Staff

Adrian advanced to the Division III national title game with a 5-3 win over Oswego State Friday afternoon in Minneapolis.

The Bulldogs, winners of 14 straight games, will now play for the first NCAA championship in school history tonight against St. Norbert.

Shawn Skelly scored twice, while Zach Graham, Andrew Dovey and Mike Towns added singles to back Brad Fogal's 39-save performance in net.

"We are thrilled to be moving on and it really has not hit me yet," said senior forward Eric Miller, who added two assists. "We still have one more game to win before we can really exhale. Our goal four years ago was to win a national title and we are so close to realizing a dream."

The national championship will be decided tonight at 8 p.m. from Ridder Arena in Minneapolis.
