In this afternoon’s weekend preview, I predicted that BC women’s hockey would sweep UNH with matching 6-2 scores — the rationale being we just don’t post shutouts this year — and that someone would score a hat trick.
I wasn’t too far off! The Eagles did post a touchdown in Game 1 with a 6-0 win, so I was wrong about the no-shutouts, but we’ve already gotten our hat trick — and it was more than just your garden variety hat trick.
Boston College Goal #1 (PPG, GWG): 8:22 of the 1st period
Makenna Newkirk (Daryl Watts, Caitrin Lonergan)
BC 1, UNH 0
Daryl Watts very nearly scored the first five goals of this game.
