4-5 November

1994: BU and UMass-Lowell kept the red goal-light on seemingly all night in a 9-7 shootout win for the Terriers at Walter Brown Arena. The teams combined for eight second-period goals. Forward Chris O'Sullivan led the way with a hattrick, the first of six the Terriers would ring up in a season that ended with BU's fourth NCAA championship. Sullivan''s season was highlighted by a team-leading 56 points, second team All-American honors and the Most Outstanding Player Award in the NCAA Tournament.

Shawn Bates added two goals, Captain Jacques Joubert netted the game-winner while Mike Grier, Mike Prendergast and Jon Coleman added single scores.

The two teams nearly repeated the score the next night at Tully Forum, battling to a 7-7 tie. Bates and Billy Pierce each netted a pair. UML won the shootout which featured a spin-o-rama goal by the Hawks Greg Bullock.
