CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – Boston College freshman Matt Boldy and senior Rylie Rueda have been named the Musco Lighting Eagles of the Week for their performances this past weekend.

Boldy led the men's hockey team with a plus-5 rating in a home-and-home sweep of 10th-ranked Northeastern. The Millis, Mass. native posted two goals and an assist in Friday's 10-1 win over the Huskies at Kelley Rink, the second multi-goal performance in his last three games. Boldy has 15 points over his last 10 contests and has helped lead the Eagles into sole possession of first place in Hockey East.

With the fencing team competing at the ACC Fencing Championships this past weekend, Rueda earned a silver medal on Saturday in the women's epee. The Washington, D.C. native went 10-5 in the preliminary round to advance to the semi-finals. Rueda then defeated Notre Dame's Dasha Yefremenko, 15-14, in the third-place fence-off to clinch the podium spot.
