On Monday afternoon, USCHO released their weekly poll of the top 20 teams in NCAA D1 men’s hockey, and the Boston College Eagles found themselves rising from #4 to #3 this week. They passed archrival Boston University in the process, making the ranking feel extra sweet.
BC took care of business this past Friday, defeating the LIU Sharks at home, 4-2, in their only game of the weekend. What really stood out during the game was the student attendance, which broke an all-time Conte Forum record. I talked more about it in this week’s weekly kickoff and what this huge student turnout could mean for a magical season of hockey on the Heights.
