WORCESTER, Mass. - The No. 13 Boston University men's ice hockey team came up just short its it bid to reach this year's Frozen Four, dropping a 6-3 contest to No. 10 Michigan on Sunday at the NCAA Northeast Regional final at the DCU Center.

Senior Drew Melanson, junior Jordan Greenway and sophomore Patrick Curry scored goals for the Terriers, who finish the season with a record of 22-14-4.

HOW IT HAPPENED

• The Terriers rallied from a 3-1 deficit to tie the game on a goal by Melanson off a Michigan turnover at 3:30 of the third period.
• Michigan, however, regained the lead for good on Jake Slaker's game winner with 13:33 to play and advanced to the Frozen Four.
• The Wolverines never trailed, opening the scoring just 5:12 into the game off a tally by Quinn Hughes.
• Greenway tied up the game just over seven minutes later after skating in through the left circle and picking out the top corner above Hayden Lavigne's left shoulder for his 13th goal of the season.
• A power-play goal by Michigan's Tony Calderone made it 2-1 at 15:21 of the first and the Wolverines doubled their lead when Brendan took advantage of an awkward bounce off the end boards to create a 3-1 advantage just 1:57 into the middle stanza. 
• A wraparound goal by Curry at 11:08 of the second gave the Terriers some life and made it a 3-2 affair after two. 
• The Terriers intercepted an outlet pass and got to work in the offensive end. Eventually Michigan blocked a Cam Crotty shot, but Curry grabbed the loose puck, skated hard around the cage and backhanded the puck home for his fourth goal of the campaign. Sophomore Chad Krys also assisted on the goal.
• BU started off the third period strong and was rewarded with the Melanson tally. After Greenway blocked a Michigan outlet pass, Melanson picked up the puck, skated in on Lavigne and calmly slid the puck into the back of the net.
