NCAA Quarterfinals: Minnesota at #4 Boston College, 3/12 at 1pm

BC was simply better in the first and definitely threatened throughout the game, even after Minny started playing at full speed.

Not sure why Minnesota didn't come east more from 2006-2009
For years now, Minnesota has done one non-conference roadtrip a season, and over those years, it was against a CHA team (Mercyhurst, none, Wayne St, Niagara.) In 2006-07, I think there was a problem where the the nonconference road series either had a scheduling issue or the exhibition vs the Whitecaps caused a problem. I don't remember the exact hangup.

Anyway, I agree. I wish Minnesota would play more games against the top East teams, because I haven't seen that series against bottom-half teams accomplish anything. The problem is often predicting who those top teams will be, because even when we played BC, it was after their first FF trip, and they then followed with a disappointing season. Games against talented but underachieving teams can wind up being lose/lose.

Minnesota... always the class of Women's College hockey....while some one has to win...some one has to loose, believe BC out played/classed the Gophers today. Welcome to hockey East.

The USCHO recap. The story contains an inaccuracy that appears throughout; BC never trailed 4-0 in 2009, as Restuccia had scored to make it 2-1.
