Six Eagles Win Gold at 2017 World Championship
When Hilary Knight scored the game-winning goal just over halfway through the 20-minute overtime to give the United States a 3-2 win over Canada on Friday night, six Boston College women's hockey players were among the U.S. gold medalists at the 2017 IIHF Women's World Championships, which were played at USA Hockey Arena in Plymouth, Mich.
The U.S.' 23-player roster included six Eagles – little more than one quarter of the roster – who put a bow on a whirlwind three-and-a-half weeks. Current juniors Kali Flanagan and Megan Keller joined four other former Eagles on the winning team: Alex Carpenter '16, Emily Pfalzer '15, Haley Skarupa '16 and Kelli Stack '11.
