Frozen in St. Paul
Are we sure Wild’s scoreboards
Count higher than 2?

Air Force
Wild Blue Yonder
Up, up and away Air Force
Thanks for all you do

Boston College
Don’t criticize Muse
Just does job, and can’t hear chirps
With rings in his ears

Colorado College
CC in shadow
Of towering Pike’s Peak, but
BC looms larger

Denver
Pioneers are young
They think famous state natives
Are Stan, Kyle, Cartman

Merrimack
Corny ’90s song
Can be the tournament theme
Return Of The ‘Mack

Miami
INCH salutes talent
Refers to Miami girls
Haiku trend maintained

Michigan
If Michigan wins
Don’t expect that ex-commish
Will offer congrats

Minnesota Duluth
Bulldogs at Bridgeport
Like Roger Dorn; marquee name
In group of unknowns

Nebraska-Omaha
Mavs lose to save jobs?
Wrestling team won D-II crown
And school cut program

New Hampshire
Who cares if they host?
It’s not as if UNH
Will ever win this

North Dakota
Haiku won’t matter
Sioux fans will say we hate them
That’s just how they roll

Notre Dame
Freshmen leading scorers
Irish took cue from Good Book
“Little child shall lead”

Rensselaer
Who’s most popular
At Houston Field House these days?
Polacek? Puckman?

Union
Dutch placed in Bridgeport
Much better than in Green Bay
Where Unions are dissed

Western Michigan
Lawson Lunatics
Are back in the big dance, cue
Saunders’ “Parting Shot”

Yale
We pumped Yale tires
Doubters screamed, “Overrated!”
We’ll see who laughs last
