UNOSOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Ryan Massa made 40 saves and Nebraska-Omaha beat Rochester Institute of Technology 4-0 on Sunday night in the NCAA Midwest Regional final to advance to the Frozen Four for the first time.

Omaha (20-12-6) will face Providence in the semifinals in Boston on April 9. Boston University will play North Dakota in the other semifinal.

Jake Randolph opened the scoring at 1:01 of the third period and Austin Ortega, Justin Parizek and David Pope — into an empty net — added goals in the final 4 1/2 minutes.

On Saturday night, Massa made 33 saves in a 4-1 victory over Harvard, the Mavericks’ first win in NCAA Tournament play. RIT (20-15-5) beat Minnesota State-Mankato 2-1 in the semifinals, the first time the 16th-seeded team has beaten the No. 1 overall seed in the history of the tournament.
