In a game in which they played better and better as the contest progressed, BU rode four second-period goals to a 4-2 win over New Hampshire and earned a split of the weekend series. Junior goalie Grant Rollheiser (photo) was a standout, stopping 41 shots. BU, trailing by 1-0, entering the middle period, got goals from Matt Nieto, Adam Clendening –his first—Alex Chiasson and Sahir Gill. Chiasson with a goal and an assist and Corey Trivino with two helpers were the only multiple point scorers.
Terriers won the faceoff battle 39-27, with Charlie Coyle and Wade Megan putting up strong numbers. The one negative note was a broken finger suffered by junior wing Chris Connolly, who will miss the rest of the first semester.
