It was a Hockey East season known for having upsets just about every single weekend, and that trend bit Boston College Women’s Hockey at the worst possible time.
A surging UConn Huskies team that has given the Eagles fits all season and is playing their best hockey at the best possible time took a 2-1 lead in the second period over BC and never gave it up. The Huskies took the Hockey East semifinal by a final score of 4-2, sending the Eagles back home for Selection Sunday as they await their NCAA tournament opponent.
