CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
Boston College is going back to the Final Four yet again.
The fourth-seeded Eagles used a 7-1 run after allowing the first goal of the game and then pulled away in the second half on its home turf to take down fifth-seeded Notre Dame 21-10 in the NCAA quarterfinals.
“It’s so special,” Boston College head coach Acacia Walker-Weinstein said. “This is something they should cherish for the rest of their life, because it doesn’t happen often. It’s not normal to go to a Final Four, so I’m just so proud of them.”
Colorado College vs. RIT
We also said goodbye to some solid bids; Franklin & Marshall was sent home, Cabrini didn’t stand a chance against Salisbury and Stevenson’s woes finally caught up with it.
Tufts has kept rolling, dominating Babson before taking down a strong St. John Fisher team. Centre made a good bid with an upset over Denison before falling to a dominant Colorado College squad.
Lots of interesting notes this week, and the next round is sure to be just as intriguing.
Best game
York vs. Franklin & Marshall
York has been on a tear lately, and the Spartans did a tremendous job holding a good Franklin & Marshall offense to just nine goals in a 13-9 win.
