Field Hockey Drops #OrangeEagle Points; Defeats Northeastern

BC suffers heartbreak against Syracuse after holding a 2-0 lead.

Saturday vs. #2 Syracuse

A Friday afternoon home game against #2 Syracuse turned into heartbreak for the Eagles. Coming off a dramatic win over Maryland earlier in the season, BC was hoping to knock off another top 5 team. The Eagles took a quick lead thanks to superstar junior Emily McCoy, who leads the team with 11 points this season. Her fourth goal of the season came off a penalty corner in the first half. Just 12 minutes later, freshman Lucy Lytle scored a quick goal after being set up by junior Leah Frome.
