Senior defenseman Bobby Allen scored a power-play goal with just under six minutes to play, and the Boston College Eagles held on to beat the Denver Pioneers 3-2 to sweep the teams’ two-game series before a crowd of 5,973 at Magness Arena.<\/p>\n
For the second time in two games Denver scored first, when freshman Lukas Dora notched a power-play goal to give the Pioneers a 1-0 lead midway through the first period. <\/p>\n
Late in the same period Boston College answered with a power-play goal of its own, with freshman forward Chuck Kobasew taking a feed from senior forward Mike Lephart to knot the game at 1-1. For Lephart, it was his second consecutive two-assist performance for the Eagles.<\/p>\n
Boston College converted on two of its seven power-play opportunities for the game.<\/p>\n
The Eagles took the lead for good three minutes into the second period on sophomore forward A. J. Walker’s first collegiate goal, on a pass from sophomore defenseman Bill Cass.<\/p>\n
Trailing 3-1 with 3:22 remaining in the game, Denver (0-2-0) took advantage of a Boston College delayed penalty and pulled its goaltender for a six-on-five opportunity. That paid off when Kevin Doell scored to bring the Pioneers within one goal, but they could get no closer.<\/p>\n
BC goaltender Scott Clemmensen stopped 23 Pioneer shots to earn his third win of the season. Adam Berkhoel made 24 saves in net for Denver.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
