>Detroit, Mich. – Fresh off last night’s 4-1 win to sweep the Alaska Nanooks out of the CCHA playoffs, Miami had to wait until tonight to determine their next opponent. With a 4-2 over Lake Superior State, Notre Dame will face the RedHawks for the fifth time this season in one semifinal match at Joe Louis Arena in Detroit. The teams split the season series 1-1-2 with Miami winning and losing at home and tying twice in South Bend.

Michigan will face Western Michigan who defeated Ferris State in overtime earlier this evening.

Presumably Miami and Notre Dame will play the early game on Friday but the CCHA should announce the game times shortly.
