Boston College Women’s Hockey Preview: Boston University

After completely destroying Harvard and Northeastern, BC women’s hockey takes on the fourth Beanpot team this weekend: BU. The Terriers have struggled this season, and BC defeated them 4-3 earlier this season. These should be two manageable wins for the Eagles, but BC/BU games are rarely easy.

How Much Does Laura Hate the Opposing Mascot?

Did you know that I have very strong opinions on mascots? Now you do!

Rhett the Terrier 2/5

Rhett is not a bad mascot. His name is dumb (Rhett because Rhett loves Scarlett eye roll) but otherwise he is solid.
