Big Weekend Awaits Boston College Hockey: The Rundown

BC men's and women's hockey squads will be in action in Chestnut Hill this weekend. The No. 15 men's team (6-4-1, 4-2-0 Hockey East) will open the play on Friday night against No. 10 Maine (7-4-1, 4-2-0 Hockey East) at 7:00 p.m. ET before returning at the same time on Saturday night.

The Eagles enter the weekend series on a four-game win streak after sweeping UMass Amherst last weekend. In the home-and-home series, BC won 7-3 on Friday at Conte Forum and 4-0 on Saturday in Amherst.

The Eagles' offense has been firing on all cylinders lately, with sophomore forward Jake Sondreal leading the team with five goals. James Hagens has tallied four goals and seven assists, tying Sondreal as the team's points leader with 11 points apiece.

Their defense has been too, with freshman goalie Louka Cloutier named Hockey East Goaltender of the Week for the second consecutive week.

Before facing UMass Amherst, BC took down Vermont in consecutive games in Burlington, 2-1 on Friday and 5-0 on Saturday.

BC women's hockey (7-6-1, 6-2-1 Hockey East) will play just one game this weekend as opposed to the men's two matchups. The Eagles will face Merrimack College on Saturday, Nov. 22 at 2:00 p.m. ET in Conte Forum.

BC has won three games in a row and is coming off a huge sweep over its Comm. Ave rivals Boston University. The Eagles defeated BU 5-2 at Conte Forum then 3-2 at Agganis Arena.

Freshman forward Ava Thomas leads BC in points with 18. The next closest skater is Sammy Taber with 10 points.
