Blast from the Past: UND Beats DU in the 2011 Final Five



It seems like yesterday. On Saturday, March 19, 2011, at Xcel Energy Center, the University of North Dakota Fighting Sioux defeated their bitter rivals the Denver Pioneers 3-2 in double overtime. With the win, UND won the WCHA playoff title and the auto bid to the 2011 NCAA tourney.



The game was tight. UND was outshot by the Pioneers, but Aaron Dell held down the fort for the Fighting Sioux. The game would go to two overtimes.

And then at the 5:11 mark of the second overtime, Matt Frattin picked up a rebound off of Chay Genoway and deposited the puck in the net. Game over!
