23 December

1924: The Terriers defeated their archrivals, the Boston College Eagles, 1-0, at Boston Arena. Charles Viano scored the only goal of the game at 1:43 of the second period on a long shot that eluded Jack Fitzgerald, the Eagle’s star goalie. The Eagles outplayed the Terriers throughout the game, especially in the third period, but goalie Don Martin stopped all 82 shots the Eagles put on net--still an all-time BU record. It was both Boston University’s first shutout and first win against Boston College, after losing the first four games in the series.

1973: Boston University named Jack Parker the 10th head coach of the men’s ice hockey team.
