Junior Kristen Williams (Levittown, NY) and freshman Kariane Lauri (Memphis, NY) scored a goal apiece in the following five minutes. BC answered with two goals of its own from Rachel Bausch and Ryan to knot the game, 3-3, at intermission.
Boston College opened the second half with four-straight goals to continue a six-goal run, taking a lead it would not relinquish. Ryan scored two in the span as Tara Morley and Rachel Tella also contributed. The Huskies staged a furious comeback in the final seven minutes of the contest behind junior Pam Lowie’s (Cortland, NY) three goals but were unable to get any closer before time expired.
