BC Women’s Hockey Finds Form in Weekend Sweep of Merrimack

After last weekend’s brutal drubbing at the hands of #8 Quinnipiac, Boston College Women’s Hockey faced off against a much easier opponent in the Merrimack Warriors this week, giving the team a welcome opportunity to regroup. But even with the weaker opposition, the Eagles still needed to execute to get the wins. Last year’s three victories over Merrimack were by a combined four goals, and the slow start to this season didn’t give all that much confidence that BC would be able to control these games as much as one might hope. But Coach Crowley’s squad did what they needed to do in both games, taking the weekend home-and-home in a sweep with wins of 4-1 and 4-0 heading into a nice long week.
