26 And Counting
Coming into this tournament, Northeastern was the definitive longshot. Playing against three ranked teams, no one gave them much of a chance — especially against the perennial Beanpot champions in tonight’s final. In the end, David went toe-to-toe with the Beanpot’s Goliath but couldn’t quite pull off a historic win. In the longest championship game … Read more

Lowell Ties BU in Barnburner
Boston University junior David Van der Gulik recorded a bittersweet hat trick in what was arguably the most exciting game in the infancy of Agganis Arena.

Nothing Doing For No. 8 BU

BU Beats U.S. Under-18ers

No. 13 BU Handles UNO
The second-to-last Boston University hockey game in the history of Walter Brown Arena proved to be about as memorable as Ted Williams’ second-last at bat of his fabled career with the Boston Red Sox.

Harvard Edges No. 11 BU
At the press conference following Tuesday’s game, first-year Harvard coach Ted Donato was reminded that this could have been the 700th coaching win for Boston University’s Jack Parker — but that instead, it was Donato’s fourth.

BU Rallies To Top UML
