The win was the 200th for eighth-year UNH head coach Brian McCloskey, who has a career record of 200-42-48.
UNH, which extended its unbeaten streak vs. the Eagles to nine games (8-0-1) with its fourth straight win in the series, improved to 11-2-4 overall and 6-1-1-0 in Hockey East. BC is now 5-7-6, 4-4-3-3.
It was Cuthbert's first career assist and the two points are a personal best. UNH goaltender Kayley Herman recorded her third shutout of the season and 14th of her career with a 21-save effort. Katie Brock tallied the first points of her career with a pair of assists.
