QUOTABLES

Head coach Katie Crowley
"It was an ugly win. There were some fluke things that happened to us, but I think we have to clean things up a little bit. We're making some mistakes where we're getting a little too ahead of ourselves. I think we need to step it back and relax a little bit and chill out. We'll work on those things and try to show some video and try to get better ... We knew (St. Lawrence) was going to come at us hard. They're feisty and they never quit. And that's a team you're going to have to be on your game for a full 60 minutes. Our kids are learning that; you can't take a shift off, you can't a period off. So they're starting to figure that out."

HOW IT HAPPENED

- BC scored two goals in the first, two in the second and three in the third, while St. Lawrence struck for two goals in the second and third periods

- Defenders Toni Ann Miano and Megan Keller put BC up 2-0 headed into the first period, with Miano pocketing her rebound, while Keller stuck on the power play with :08 left in the first period

- Alex Carpenter scored from the slot to push the score to 3-1 just :17 into the second period

- St. Lawrence drew within one goal when Nadine Edney (1:43) and Dominque Korakianitis (8:28) scored in the second period.

- Haley Skarupa converted the Eagles' second power-play goal at 19:28 of the second period to push the BC lead back to two goals

- Keller scored again - this time slotting home a pass from Carpenter on a break on the power play - at 3:16 of the third period, and eight seconds later at 3:24, Tori Sullivan scored her first of the season while converting a sequence started by Andie Anastos and Meghan Grieves in their own end

- St. Lawrence again clawed back with a pair of goals - at 7:24 and 14:39 - by Lydia Grauer and Abbey McRae, respectively, but Makenna Newkirk scored her first collegiate goal at 18:53 when the Saints pulled goaltender Sonjia Shelly
