Well that was a fun way to start the weekend.
In front of a packed crowd that was loud from well before the opening puck drop, the Boston College men’s hockey team took down their biggest rival in BU by a 4-1 score. The two teams played a mostly even game, but the Eagles got some big goals from their freshmen before two sophomores iced things with some late empty net goals to give BC the win in the first game of this home-and-home series. Four different players scored for BC and Jacob Fowler played a strong game in net while getting some help from his posts as the Eagles improved to 17-4-1 on the season.
