September 26, 2019 | Women's Ice Hockey
WAKEFIELD, Mass. - The Boston University women's ice hockey team was picked to finish second by the league's head coaches in the Hockey East preseason poll released on Thursday.
BU received one first-place vote and totaled 71 points to finish ahead of third-place Boston College (65 points). Northeastern earned the top spot in the poll with 81 points. Providence (56 points) is fourth, followed by New Hampshire (42), UConn (41), Merrimack (30), Maine (29), Vermont (25) and Holy Cross (9).
The Terriers ended last season with a 15-6-6 conference record, good for third in the league standings. BU advanced to the Hockey East semifinals for the 11th time in 14 seasons and concluded the year as the No. 8 team in the country according to both major national polls. Four of the Terriers' five Hockey East All-Stars from a year ago are back, including the league's top two point producers in Jesse Compher and Sammy Davis. Corinne Schroeder, who finished the year with the second-best save percentage in the conference at .933, will also return for the Terriers, as will two-time New England All-Star defender Abby Cook.
BU will begin the 2019-20 regular season on Sunday, Oct. 6, when the Terriers trek to Union.
