26 February

1964: Boston University shutout Boston College, 1-0, at McHugh Forum. The first period was closely played, but each team still had chances, with BU putting 14 shots on net and BC putting 10 shots on net. In the second the Terriers continued to hold a slight advantage and it finally paid off at 10:58 when Bruce Fennie beat Tom Apprille for the game’s only goal. Fennie passed to Dennis O’Connell who skated down the right boards and passed back to Fennie, who took a 35-foot shot. The puck hit the post and came back out to Fennie, who had cut to his left and put home a head-on 20-footrt. In the third the Eagles slightly outplayed the Terriers, thanks to two powerplays, but they were not able to beat Jack Ferreira. For the game Apprille made 36 saves in a losing effort and Ferreira made 27 for the shutout win.
