CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. - The top-ranked Boston College women's hockey team matched its program record for consecutive wins, claiming a 6-2 victory over Vermont tonight to push their winning streak to 25 games. Dana Trivigno tallied four points (one goal, three assists) to lead the way, while Alex Carpenter added a pair of goals.
The Eagles now hold the second-longest winning streak in NCAA history - twice. In 2014-15, BC won 25 games from Oct. 19, 2014 through Feb. 6, 2015. This year, BC has yet to lose or tie a game, winning each of its first 25 contests. Both streaks are tied for second-longest in NCAA history behind Minnesota's record 62-game mark (Feb. 18, 2012-Nov. 16, 2013).

QUOTABLES
Boston College head coach Katie Crowley
"Coming off a game like the rivalry with Harvard (on Tuesday), it was tough to get yourself going after a win like that. I thought eventually we got going and started playing a little bit better. But the first period, for sure, was a little bit flat."
"I think (Vermont) is a fast team, they come out hard and they work extremely hard. And that's what they're going to give tomorrow. I hope we come out with a little more intensity and little more fire. But I think they'll come out fighting for that fourth spot (in Hockey East), so we have to give it everything we have to be ready for it."
"(Our second and third lines) are working hard to produce offense. Tori (Sullivan) is in a new position as a center so she's learning that D-Zone a bit and learning how to be a center. But I thought Dana (Trivigno) was great today. I thought their line was great. I think they're just learning how to play with each other and starting to get the hang of each other."
HOW IT HAPPENED
1st, 11:26 // 1-0 - BC GOAL: Makenna Newkirk got the Eagles on the board when she re-directed Megan Keller's blast from the left point. Dana Trivigno set the play up along the boards.
2nd, 2:17 // 2-0 - BC GOAL: Toni Ann Miano converted with a rocket from the right point after Lexi Bender played her wide. Trivigno kept the play alive when she kept the puck in the zone on her way to a shift change.
2nd, 15:34 // 3-0 - BC GOAL (PPG): Andie Anastos pushed in the rebound of Kali Flanagan's shot from the point after Bender played the puck across the blue line for Flanagan's rip.
2nd, 17:56 // 3-1 - UVM GOAL: Taylor Willard's shot from the high slot was initially saved by Katie Burt, but the rebound popped straight up and behind her, trickling over the line for Vermont's first goal. Dayna Colang got the play going when she dumped the puck around the goal, before Amanda Drobot connected with Willard up high.
3rd, 00:21 // 4-1 BC GOAL: Haley Skarupa and Kenzie Kent dug the puck off the near boards and found Carpenter in the slot. The senior skated in and ripped a wrister up over the UVM goalie's shoulder.
3rd, 2:06 // 5-1 BC GOAL: Anastos worked the play up the boards to Bender at the point, whose dump down low was wide. The puck went right to Trivigno at the end line, and she found space between UVM goaltender Madison Litchfield and the post for the Eagles' fifth goal.
3rd, 2:18 // 5-2 UVM GOAL: The Catamounts jumped on a clearing pass up the boards and Taylor Williams played a feed through the slot to Saana Valkama, who pushed it in alone on the near post.
3rd, 14:10 // 6-2 BC GOAL: Carpenter won the faceoff back to Keller at the far point, and then re-directed the defenseman's blast past Litchfield.
