UML’s Brown transfers to BU


Hockey writer Mark Divver is reporting that Lowell left wing Matt Brown is transferring to BU after two seasons with the River Hawks:

"Lowell's Matt Brown will transfer to Boston University, per source. Big add for Terriers. Significant interest from NCHC, Big Ten, Hockey East & ECAC schools"

The 5’9” Wood Ridge, N.J. native is a left shot who had an 8-5-13 scoring line in 19 games for the River Hawks. Four of his goals came in the Hockey East tournament: two against Vermont in the preliminary round, one against the Terriers in the quarter final (it was the tying goal in Lowell’s 2-1 win) and the double overtime game-winner against BC in the semifinal. He was named Hockey East co-player of the week for the two-goal effort vs. the Catamounts.

As a freshman, Brown led Lowell in scoring with 24 points (6G,18A) in 33 games—including 17 points in his first 15 career games. Prior to his college career, he had 57 points (30G,27A) for USHL Des Moines in 2018-19, earning second-team all-star honors and 41 points (16G,25A) for NAHL Odessa in 2017-18. Earlier he played at various levels for the New Jersey Rockets organization and was EHL Rookie of the Year in 2016-17 with 51 points.
