1971: Defending national champion Terriers improved to 5-0-1 after routing previously unbeaten Ohio University, 9-1, at Walter Brown Arena. BU jumped to a 2-0 first-period lead on goals by captain Jake Danby and Paul Giandomenico.

Danby potted his second of the game just 39 seconds into the second period followed by three more tallies from Guy Burrowes, Toot Cahoon and Mike LaGarde for a 6-0 margin.

In the third period, goals by Ric Jordan and Melrose HS teammates Larry Abbott and Steve Dolloff made it 9-0 before a late Bobcat goal broke the shutout. Dan Brady and Tim Regan combined to make 20 saves, while OU’s beleaguered, goalie Denny Haworth, fended off 47 Terrier shots.

Danby, Giandomenico, Cahoon, Abbott, Dolloff and Regan were among the BU ‘71/’72 national champion alums who were honored during Saturday’s game against BC.
