Box Score

NEWTON, Mass. – Boston College field hockey (5-7, 1-3 ACC) earned a 4-1 upset victory over No. 15 Virginia (6-5, 2-4 ACC) on Friday evening at the Newton Field Hockey Complex, using a pair of first-quarter goals and two more in the fourth quarter to secure the ACC win.

Laila Rosenquest opened the scoring just 1:01 into the contest, finishing a penalty corner opportunity off an assist from Madelieve Drion. Virginia responded with an equalizer later in the quarter, but the Eagles quickly regained the lead as Ava Meehan scored her first career goal in maroon and gold with 31 seconds remaining in the opening quarter. Meehan finished a feed from Klara Mueffelmann to put BC ahead, 2-1.

The Eagles maintained their one-goal advantage through the second and third quarters, with goalkeeper Charlotte Kramer making six saves to keep Virginia at bay.

BC extended its lead early in the fourth quarter when Drion found the back of the net. Maren Boyle added an insurance goal with an empty net, converting a pass from Lucy Parker to seal the 4-1 upset.

Boston College finished with seven shots, putting six on target, while Virginia recorded 14 shots and seven shots on goal. Kramer's six saves helped the Eagles limit the 15th-ranked Cavaliers to one goal.
