30 year reunion

Members of the 1976-77 Terriers, who won a record four consecutive ECAC championships, will be in attendance at tonight’s BU-UNH game, watching from the Mark Bavis alumni box, above Section 102. That team featured the scoring of Rick Meagher, Mike Eruzione and Dave Silk, Jack O'Callahan, Dick Lamby, Gary Fay and Bill O'Neill on defense, and Jim Craig and Brian Durocher in goal. Meagher was named All-American for the third year in a row.

It’s appropriate that the reunion take place at a BU-UNH game as the Terriers beat the Wildcats, 8-6, in the ECAC title game in 1977, culminating a wild and high-scoring ECAC tournament. The Terriers had beaten BC, 8-7, in the quarter finals and came back from two goals down late in the semi-final, to oust Clarkson, 7-6. We’ll have more information about this reunion and some remembrances from team members during the coming weeks.
