Union ends BC's latest run

When you win as often as BC Hockey, anything less than a championship is a disappointment. This year ended without another National Title as BC lost to Union 5-4. It was a frustrating loss too, as BC put together a flurry in the final minutes to make it interesting. But Union is a really good team and took advantage of BC's miscues and put plenty of pressure on Demko. Best of luck to the Dutchmen in the Final.

Immediately after the game the focus shifted to Johnny Gaudreau. BC's leading scorer will soon decide if he will forego his remaining eligibility and turn pro. I am sure York will give him sound advice. While this is not the storybook end, Gaudreau did about as much as he could at the college level.

Hockey to face Union in Providence

As expected BC earned an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament. We will play Union this Saturday night. The winner faces the winner of Canisius and Quinnipiac. The good news is that the game is in Providence so any BC fan wanting to go can. We also got a decent bracket and have a very good chance of advancing to another Frozen Four.

BC provided no guidance on Jerry York's status. I would find it hard to imagine him coming back this week.
