TERRIER TIDBITS

BU began Patriot League play with a 15-10 win over then-No. 20 Navy last Saturday at Nickerson Field.
Eight of the Terriers' 15 goals came from the offensive midfield, led by junior Tyler Fox's two goals and two assists.
Fox was named to the USILA Team of the Week for his efforts.
Sophomore Andrew Pape recorded a hat trick while senior Sam Burns, sophomore Mike Rooney and senior Ethan Hart also found the back of the net.
In addition, short-stick defensive midfielder Charlie Huntley and junior LSM Donald Varnerin each scored.
Varnerin has notched a goal in four of the Terriers' five games this season.
Senior attackman Jimmy Kohr led all scorers with four goals and freshman attacker Peyton Forte finished the day with four points on one goal and a career-best three assists.
Kohr has scored in 21 straight games dating back to last year.
Sophomore Timothy Shannehan leads BU in goals (13), assists (14) and points (27).
Shannehan is averaging 5.40 points per game, which is tied for fourth in the nation and is first in the Patriot League.

BU killed off six of Navy's eight man-up chances in Saturday's win and also scored a man-down goal.
