THE BASICS:
RESULT: #10 Boston College 6, Massachusetts 1
LOCATION: Kelley Rink at Conte Forum (Chestnut Hill, Mass.)
RECORDS: Massachusetts (5-17-2, 2-9-1 HEA); Boston College (15-9-2, 10-3-1 HEA)
THE LEAD: Three goals in the first period helped carry No. 10 Boston College past the University of Massachusetts hockey team at Kelley Rink on Friday night by a 6-1 margin. Ray Pigozzi provided the lone tally for the Minutemen, which came midway through the second period.
FIRST PERIOD:
Boston College opened the scoring 12:32 into the first when Austin Cangelosi and Chris Brown set up David Cotton for a one-timer at the back post. With the teams skating 4-on-4, Julius Matilla added to the Eagles advantage with his tally from Luke McInnis and Scott Savage from the left faceoff circle at 14:24. Then in the closing seconds of the frame, Cangelosi pushed the score to 3-0, tapping in a feed from Brown and Cotton at 19:55.
SECOND PERIOD:
UMass took one of the goals back 7:53 into the second period. With the teams skating 4-on-4, senior Steven Iacobellis carried an Ivan Chukarov blocked shot up the ice and sent a pass ahead to Pigozzi. Pigozzi then drove his shot home from the top of the faceoff circle for his fifth goal of the season. However, BC regained its three-goal cushion before the period was complete. Brown found Savage alone in front with a pass out of the corner for the strike at 17:02.
THIRD PERIOD:
Boston College notched its fifth goal 57 seconds into the third period on a shot from the point by Michael Kim. JD Dudek, the Eagles' sixth different scorer, added the final tally of the contest at the 16:14 mark.
FROM COACH CARVEL:
"The 6-1 score is pretty lopsided and shots were too, but I didn't mind our effort tonight. I thought our guys competed hard, but our margin for error is extremely thin, especially against skilled teams. I thought that was the case tonight. We had two breakdowns in the d-zone and they quickly capitalized and I think three goals where they just found ways to throw pucks at the net that found their way to the back of the net."
