The Boston University Terriers women's ice hockey represent Boston University. The Terriers play in the Hockey East conference. Finishing their 10th season as a D-I varsity team, the Terriers have won five Hockey East Championships and have made six consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances. ==History== 2013-14 Season An Olympic year, the Terriers would be forced to play without star Olympian Marie-Philip Poulin. But despite their frustrating loss in the NCAA Championship game, the team went on to complete an undefeated year in Walter Brown for the entirety of 2013 and the first half of the 2013-14 season, playing 20 undefeated games at Walter Brown Arena. The streak was broken on January 8, 2014 with a 4-1 loss to rival Boston College. The loss shook the Terriers and the team suffered a four-game losing streak between January 17-25. Despite being swept by Boston College at the conclusion of the regular season, BU entered the post season guns blazing and defeated Providence and Northeastern in two 3-2 decisions to advance to the Hockey East Championships against Regular Season Champions Boston College. BU entered the third period of the championship game down 2-1, after a rough second period marred by penalties for the Terriers. Early in the third, a goaltender interference penalty on BC opened up BU's chance and senior Louise Warren managed to fire a shot past the Eagle's senior goaltender, Corrine Boyles to tie the game at 2-2. Five minutes later, freshman Maddie Elia fired a shot from sophomore Rebecca Russo to beat Boyles and give the Terriers a 3-2 lead. BU held on for the remainder of the game and clinched its third consecutive and fourth total Hockey East Championship. Senior Kerrin Sperry was selected as MVP for the second straight year, the second WHEA player to ever receive back-to-back honors. Winning the Hockey East Championship gave the Terriers the opportunity to advance to its fifth consecutive NCAA Quarterfinal game, but their low seed required them to play versus top-ranked Minnesota for a rematch of the 2013 championship game. BU could not enact revenge versus Minnesota and dropped the contest 5-1. BU's lone goal came at the hands of Sophomore Sarah Lefort in the first period. Lefort's goal was her 32nd of the season, making her the league leader in goals for the season. Senior Kerrin Sperry made 41 saves in the loss, ending her collegiate career with a program-record 85 wins and 13 shutouts. BU finished their season at 24-13-1. 2012-13 Season The Terriers rolled into the 12-13 season with a 7-1-0 start in the first month, with the lone loss coming in the form of another sting from Cornell, a 5-2 loss played in Agganis Arena. BU would get revenge in the following game, 5-1. The Terriers proceeded to go undefeated in Walter Brown in the new year, ending their regular season with an impressive 8-game win streak. BU proceeded to trounce Providence 4-0 in the Hockey East Semifinals and Northeastern 5-2 in the Hockey East Championship Game to repeat as champions, BU's third total. Junior Kerrin Sperry was selected as MVP, holding the record for least goals allowed in the Hockey East Tournament with three goals over three appearances. BU went on to roll past Clarkson 5-3 at Walter Brown Arena in the NCAA quarterfinal game, advancing to the Frozen Four for the second time in program history. BU decisively beat Mercyhurst 4-1 to advance to its second NCAA Championship game, this time versus host Minnesota. Minnesota came into the game with the league's only perfect season and though the Terriers put up a valiant effort against the unstoppable Gophers, BU dropped the championship game 6-3. Freshman Sarah Lefort, Senior Jenelle Kohanchuk, and Junior Olympian Marie-Philip Poulin all tallied goals against Minnesota's Noora Räty. The Terriers ended their season at 28-6-3, the team's fewest losses so far as a varsity team. 2011-12 Season Fresh off their loss in the Frozen Four championship game, the Terriers went 5-3-1 in the first month of play, suffering two more losses to defending champions Wisconsin. BU would lose in overtime 4-3 to Northeastern for the Beanpot Final, keeping the Terriers Beanpot-less as a varsity team. However, the Terriers would make their mark on the postseason in an outstanding fashion. BU clinched its second Hockey East championship with a thrilling comeback, a 2-1 2OT win over Providence College. Senior Jennifer Wakefield tied the game 1-1 with 7.3 seconds left in the third period. Wakefield scored again two minutes into the second overtime period to win the game and clinch the Terriers' third NCAA tournament appearance. The postseason saga continued as the No. 5 Terriers faced Cornell in the NCAA quarterfinal game. BU shot out of the gate with three straight goals, and the teams stood at 3-1 at the end of the first period. However, Cornell came out swinging in the second and quickly took a 7-4 lead by the midpoint of the third period. Not to be outdone, the Terriers scored three straight power play goals in the final 10 minutes of regulation to tie the game at 7-7. The teams would go on to play nearly 60 additional minutes of hockey, shattering the record for the longest NCAA Quarterfinal game ever played. Sophomore goaltender Kerrin Sperry would hold off the onslaught of Cornell shots in a spectacular performance, but could not stop a shot sneaked by from Cornell's Lauriane Rougeau. BU ended their season with a heartbreaking 8-7 3OT loss for a season record of 23-14-1. 2010-11 Season Early in the 2010-11 season, the Terriers made club history. On October 2, Olympic gold medallist Marie-Philip Poulin scored a goal for Boston University in her first NCAA game. The following day, BU defeated North Dakota by a 6-2 mark. It signified the first time in program history that the Terriers defeated an opponent from the WCHA.
