In an expected yet depressing turn of events the 69th Beanpot was officially cancelled and the 2022 edition will be the 69th playing of the storied tournament. It was a forgone conclusion before that was only cemented by the fact that Harvard had its season cancelled earlier in the season. There was precedence to replace a team as Boston University was unwilling to field a team in the ‘93 edition of the women’s tournament.
TD Garden made an announcement that was soon followed up confirming the cancellation of the tournament by multiple sources. Both the men’s and women’s tournaments will not be played.
