Letter of Congratulations

Dear Mark Johnson,

Congratulations to you and the Wisconsin women's hockey team for winning yet another national championship. That makes three in the past four years and four straight appearances in the championship game. Wow.
Through hard work, dedication, leadership, unity, confidence and resilience -- personality traits you try to instill as a coach -- anything can be achieved. The Badgers certainly proved it.
It's fantastic to see that goaltender Jessie Vetter won the Patty Kazmaier award, given to the best NCAA Division I women's hockey player.
In four seasons at Wisconsin, Vetter became the new NCAA recordholder for career shutouts (38), single-season shutouts (13) and career victories (90). Amazing.
Enjoy the moment. And let's get another one next year.

Warm regards,

The Wisconsin Badger nation
