2002: The Terriers defeated the top ranked New Hampshire Wildcats at Whittemore Center, 3-2, behind a strong effort by Sean Fields in goal. Fields made 42 saves and was named the game’s number one star. David Klema opened the scoring at 14:47 of the first period and Brian McConnell doubled BU’s lead 33 seconds later. Colin Hemingway cut the lead to one with just 27 seconds left in the period.
The Wildcats had several opportunities to tie the game early in the second period when they had three straight power plays, including a 43 second 5-3 man advantage. BU settled down after that and Justin Maiser scored the eventual game-winner at 17:37 of the period when he stuffed the puck past Mike Ayers on the stick side.
Just 42 seconds into the final period, Colin Hemingway made it a one-goal game again. But despite UNH having the only two power plays of the period, Fields denied them the rest of the way.
