SYRACUSE, N.Y. - No. 4 seeded Boston College fell to No. 5 seeded Virginia, 2-0, in the quarterfinals of the ACC Championship. Â

During the third quarter, the Eagles were awarded a penalty stroke. Sky Caron took the opportunity but was deflected by Virginia goaltender Tyler Kennedy.
Late in the fourth quarter, after Jaime Natale was issued a green card, BC pulled goalkeeper Jonna Kennedy out of the cage to even the numbers. In total, Kennedy spent 56:24 in net and made five saves for the Eagles.
