CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. - Nine different players recorded a point as the Boston College men's hockey team defeated Harvard by a score of 3-1 Tuesday night in non-conference action at Kelley Rink. Teddy Stiga, Will Vote, and Brady Berard each lit the lamp for the Eagles.
BC improves to 14-4-1 overall while Harvard drops to 5-8-2.
The Eagles opened the scoring early with a power-play goal. On the 5v4 advantage, Stiga's initial shot was saved, but the rebound came off of James Hagens and fell perfectly to Stiga for the quick wrist shot into the open goal to put BC ahead 1-0.
The Crimson tied things up with less than 90 seconds to go in the first period with a power-play goal of their own through Ryan Healey.
Boston College regained the lead early in the middle period when Mike Posma found Vote across the net front for the tap-in to make it 2-1.
As the clock ran down in the third period, Harvard pulled its goaltender and Berard scored an empty-net goal with just over one minute to go to push the Eagles lead to two.
BC went 1-3 on the power-play and 1-2 on the penalty kill.
Jacob Fowler made 20 saves, while Kyle Charette made 24 saves for the Crimson.
