Four Pick Up Multiple Points in UNH Win
October 14, 2016 | Women's Hockey
Bizal, Capizzano, Keller and Newkirk all score one goal and add an assist
DURHAM, N.H. – Four different players recorded one goal and one assist as the No. 5 Boston College women's hockey team earned a 4-1 win at New Hampshire on Friday night.
Megan Keller, Kristyn Capizzano, Makenna Newkirk and Grace Bizal each tallied single goals and assisted on each other's scores as the Eagles won their third straight game and their 27th straight game in Hockey East play.
Keller's goal put the Eagles ahead going into the second period, but New Hampshire (0-5-0, 0-2-0 HEA) notched a goal just 55 seconds in to the second period to tie the score. The 1-1 score line held into the third until BC posted three straight goals from Capizzano, Newkirk and Bizal to claim the win.
Boston College (3-1-1, 3-0-0 HEA) returns to action tomorrow, Saturday, Oct. 15, when the team plays a road game against Maine (1-6-0, 0-3-0 HEA) at the Norway Savings Bank Arena in Auburn, Maine at 7 p.m.

HOW IT HAPPENED
QUOTABLES
Head coach Katie Crowley
"Our team played really well, especially in the second and third periods. I thought we started to take over momentum-wise. Even though they scored to tie it up, I still thought we were creating chances with all five skaters, which is what we've been working on and were trying to do here. I was exciting to see it really work for us in that third period."

HOW IT HAPPENED
- 1st, 09:45 – 1-0, BC GOAL (PPG) || Megan Keller's power-play blast gave the Eagles the 1-0 lead. Just 36 seconds in to the man-advantage, Makenna Newkirk worked the puck off the boards and up to Keller at the center point. She played it wide right to Toni Ann Miano, which cleared a lane for Keller's low blast through traffic and the 1-0 lead.
- 2nd, 00:55 – 1-1, UNH GOAL || Carlee Turner took a long feed from Marie Jo Pelletier and curled into the zone. Taylor Wenczkowski trailed the play and after Turner dropped her the puck, she put a shot past Eagles goaltender Katie Burt from the edge of the left circle.
- 3rd, 4:22 – 2-1, BC GOAL || Keller and Kenzie Kent skated into the attacking zone and Kent played the puck off to Keller to break in down the right side. Her shot from the dot was saved by UNH goaltender Kyra Smith, but the rebound kicked out to Capizzano for the easy goal and the BC lead.
- 3rd, 10:02 – 3-1, BC GOAL || Grace Bizal's shot from the left point was saved by Smith and Capizzano pushed the rebound wide right to Newkirk who's rising shot found space behind Smith as she shifted over.
- 3rd, 18:55 – 4-1, BC GOAL (ENG) || Bizal stripped the UNH attacker at her own blue line, skated through the neutral zone and then shot on the empty net from just behind her own blue line for her first career goal.
