3 p.m., Saturday, April 16

Blake brings back two seniors who were All-Metro and All-American selections in defender Crey Bankes and goaltender Nick Washuta (11-6, 6.07 GAA, .699 save percentage).

Taking care of the offense for the Bears are attackers Jimmy Gruver (15-12-27), a junior, and senior Tom Bauer (18-4-22).
