About the Eagles
Last Time Out
BC fell to North Carolina in the ACC Championship last weekend, 16-9. The Eagles led going into the half, but the offense for UNC came alive in the second half after scoring just four goals in the first two periods. Charlotte North led the Eagles with three goals for a hat trick, while Cassidy Weeks and Caitlynn Mossman scored twice.Â
No. 3 Seed
Boston College is the third seed in the NCAA Tournament, earning a bye. The Eagles have played in the last four national championships, winning last season over Syracuse. Boston College is hosting the first two rounds, while it has won the last eight games at home in the NCAA Tournament dating back to 2017.Â
A Win Would
- Advance the Eagles to the second round to face the winner of No. 6 seed Loyola Maryland and James Madison.
- Move BC to 17-3 on the season.Â
- Improve the Eagles' home record to 8-1.Â
Making History
North's third goal against the Heels tied her with Courtney Murphy for the NCAA's all-time goals record of 341. The Dallas, Texas native is one goal away from breaking the record.Â
Coming on Strong
Weeks has come alive over the past three games in the postseason, where she led the team in goals with nine and was second in points with 12 in the ACC Tournament. She scored a career-high six times against Virginia in the ACC Semifinals. Belle Smith is also on a torrid stretch with a team-high 13 points thanks to seven goals and six assists in the last three games.Â
Scouting Denver
The Pioneers are 18-2 on the season after downing Vermont, 16-3, in the opening round on Friday. Bea Behrins led the team with four goals and set the single-season mark for goals in a season for Denver. The Pioneers have one of the top defenses in the country, where they are fifth nationally allowing just over eight goals per game. They are also second in caused turnovers per game at 13.1. Sam Thacker leads the nation averaging 3.05 caused turnovers per game.Â
Series History
Sunday's matchup is the second time this season in which the two foes have squared off. Boston College won the first contest, 9-5, in a game that was called after the third period due to extreme cold. North led the team with four goals in the victory. Boston College is 4-0 all-time in the series.Â
