Providence celebrates a goal in its win over Boston University (photo: Jim Rosvold).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

BOSTON<\/b> — Brandon Tanev broke a tie off a faceoff with 6:17 remaining, and Providence won its first national championship with a 4-3 victory over Boston University on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The Friars’ Kevin Rooney won a faceoff aganst the Terriers’ Jack Eichel, and Tanev beat BU to the net and beat goaltender Matt O’Connor.<\/p>\n

That came just over two minutes after O’Connor dropped the puck in his own net on a flip-in from center ice by the Friars’ Tom Parisi, a stunning turn of events that tied the game 3-3.<\/p>\n

The Friars (26-13-2) outshot the Terriers 20-12 in the third period after Boston University (28-8-5) held a 40-23 advantage through two periods.<\/p>\n

Jon Gillies made a career-high 49 saves for Providence.<\/p>\n

Cason Hohmann gave Boston University a 3-2 lead after two periods. Providence’s Mark Jankowski had tied the game with a power-play goal earlier in the period.<\/p>\n

Ahti Oksanen had a goal and an assist for the Terriers. The goal was the first of two for BU in a four-second span in the first period, setting an NCAA tournament record for quickest two goals.<\/p>\n

Danny O’Regan scored after an Eichel rush off the faceoff immediately after Oksanen’s goal, giving the Terriers a 2-1 lead.<\/p>\n

Anthony Florentino gave Providence a 1-0 lead.<\/p>\n

The Friars are the second No. 15 overall seed to win the NCAA tournament in the last three years, joining Yale in 2013.<\/p>\n
