TERRIER TIDBITS
- The Terriers dropped a 13-7 home contest to Army West Point in the team's league lidlifter on Mar. 12.
- Both teams scored three goals in the first quarter, but Army kept BU scoreless for over 25 minutes during the second half to build a gap.

- Classmates Hannah Tillier and Kaylee Munster also scored, while sophomore Tobey Tick tallied her fifth goal of the year.
- Sophomore Reilly Agres made 13 saves between the pipes.
- For her performance, Spaeth was named the Patriot League Rookie of the Week for the week of Mar. 14, becoming the first Terrier this season to win a weekly award.
- Thirteen different Terriers have found the back of the net this season. Eight of those goal scorers are freshmen and sophomores, who have combined for 50.8 percent of BU's goals.
- Junior Jennifer Barry remains second in the nation with 10.71 draw controls per game. She is three shy of her season-best (78 in 2021), and 16 from Jill Horka's single-season program record (91 in 2016).
- Barry is also 24 draw controls away from her head coach, Lauren Morton, for fourth all-time in career draw controls at BU.

THE SERIES
