Chestnut Hill, Mass. - The Boston College field hockey team is on the rise.
The Eagles are ranked No. 10 in the latest Penn Monto/NFHCA Division I National Coaches Poll that was released Tuesday afternoon. It's a move that is certainly deserving, as the team came away from a tough weekend slate that saw them upset then-No. 3 Maryland, 3-2 (OT), earning BC its first win over the Terps in school history.
Two-time defending champion Connecticut remains at No. 1 after opening the season there.
The Eagles will have an opportunity to continue their rise up the rankings this weekend.
