The Eagles earned a spot in the championship round by beating Hockey East rival Maine, 3-1, last Saturday night in an NCAA quarterfinal game at The Centrum in Worcester. The victory raised BC's season record to 31-8-2, equaling the school's single-season record for wins set by the 1986-87 squad, which finished 31-8. Michigan is 27-12-5 on the season.
Boston College is only the ninth team in tournament history to advance to the semifinal round four straight years. The last team to accomplish the feat was Michigan (1995-98), who capped that run with a 3-2 overtime victory over Boston College in the 1998 title game.
