THANK YOU SENIORS
- Prior to puck drop, BU honored its seven-member senior class.
- Co-captains Alexis Crossley and Natalie Flynn, Maddie Elia, Hanson, Mary Parker, Samantha Sutherland, Sarah Steele were recognized for their countless contributions to the program.
- Those seven players all had a hand in the win, most notably Hanson and her shutout. Offensively, Parker finished with a goal and an assist while Sutherland also lit the lamp. Elia tallied two assists and both Crossley and Steele had one assist apiece. Flynn generated a shot on goal and helped BU kill off all five of Maine's power plays.
GOAL-BY-GOAL
- Leslie opened the scoring 9:01 into the proceedings when she capitalized on a loose puck in front of the Maine net following a scramble at the crease. Leslie began the sequence by swiping the puck off a Maine defender's stick in the Black Bear end to keep the puck in the offensive zone.
- It became a 2-0 game just 25 seconds into the middle stanza as BU enjoyed a power-play chance. Parker dished the puck to Crossley, who then got it to Leslie in the left circle. The junior blasted one past Carly Jackson (26 saves) for her 13th goal of the season.
- Parker extended the lead to 3-0 with her league-leading 23rd goal of the season. Both Elia and Leslie had bids for goal that were turned aside, but Parker popped home her rebound bid late in the second stanza.
- Junior Victoria Bach put the Terriers ahead 4-0 just 59 seconds into the final frame. Junior Savannah Newton intercepted an outlet pass and quickly pushed the puck up ice to Bach, who skated into the zone and roofed a shot past Jackson for her 22nd goal of the season.
- Sutherland's 13th goal of the season made it 5-0 as the Terriers scored their third power-play goal of the game. Steele began the sequence by getting the puck up ice to Rodgers and Sutherland. Rodgers got the puck into the Maine zone and slid the puck to Sutherland, who quickly fired the puck past new Maine goaltender Mariah Fujimagari (12 saves).
