The first round and quarterfinals were played on the campuses of seeded teams on March 9 and 11, 2023, while the Frozen Four was played on March 17 and 19, 2023 at AMSOIL Arena in Duluth, Minnesota. Penn State and LIU each reached the NCAA tournament for the first time in program history. The Wisconsin Badgers defeated the Ohio State Buckeyes 1âÂÂ0 to win their 7th national championship.
