The University of St. Thomas football team will play tonight for the NCAA Division Three championship.

This is the first time that the Tommies have made it to the title game. Their opponent, Mount Union, has played for the championship in 15 of the last 17 seasons.

Joining MPR's Cathy Wurzer with a preview of that game and more on the local sports scene is Howard Sinker, Digital Sports Editor for the Star Tribune.
