Boston College women's hockey is set to begin its season this week against Minnesota following an exibition matchup against Stonehill college last weekend. The Eagles will hit the road Thursday donning some new threads to begin the 2025 slate.

Ahead of the Eagles lies a Thursday-Friday matchup with the Gophers in Minneapolis before playing another road matchup, then hosting its home opener against Saint Anselm College on on October 4.

The Eagles look to improve on a solid 2024 campaign that saw the team finish with a 21-13-2 record that saw the team struggle in road matchups, leading to a 7-8-1 record away from the Conte Forum. With no world-beaters on the early part of the schedule, as in 2024, BC should get out to a hot start in 2025.

There's plenty of production to replace, though, as Julia Pellerin moved on during the offseason in a transfer to UConn. Pellerin scored 20 goals in 2024 for the Eagles. However, with the return of Sammy Taber, the BC offense should still have plenty of juice. Taber finished last season with 11 goals and 25 assists.

Here is The Rundown for Wednesday, September 23.

Wednesday's Schedule:

Women's Tennis: All American Championships, Sept. 20-28, in Cary, N.C.

Tuesday's Results:

Women's Golf: Red Bandana Invitational | 1st of 15 teams
