What Teams Made The Clark Cup Final
- Fargo Force
- Dubuque Fighting Saints
No. 1 Dubuque Vs. No. 1 Fargo
Dubuque and Fargo met twice during the regular season, with the Force winning 4-0 in mid-October. The Fighting Saints returned the favor in early November with a 4-3 overtime victory. Both teams won on the road.
These two teams are meeting in the Clark Cup Final for the first time since the 2013 season.
